Marian's Care Home sits in the Central Sunset neighborhood of San Francisco, offering a quiet spot for seniors who need a bit of daily help, and the staff work around the clock, making sure everyone's safe and supported, so folks who may need help with bathing, dressing, taking their medicine, or even just moving around the house can get that kind of attention, and there's only space for six residents at a time, which keeps things calmer and less crowded than bigger places. It's licensed as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly by the state of California with license number 385600367, and the caregivers know what they're doing since they're trained to help with memory issues, incontinence, high acuity care, and they can coordinate with outside doctors and nurses if that's needed. The home allows both men and women, and pets can come along, too, which isn't always the case everywhere.
Meals get made fresh every day, and there's an eye on special diets like for folks with diabetes or allergies, and the kitchen tries to fit in things like meals for high blood pressure or other health needs, and residents can eat anytime with all-day dining. Fully furnished rooms come with wheelchair accessible showers and emergency alert systems, and every room's set up for cable, Wi-Fi, and even telephone access. The house is kept clean since housekeeping and linen services are included, and the laundry covers dry cleaning, too. There's help with move-in if it seems overwhelming, and everyone gets to join activities both in the house and outside, with anything from music and pet therapy, craft projects, movie nights, fitness and exercise plans, to religious or devotional services, or even trips out to restaurants and community events when they want. The garden, walking paths, and outdoor community spaces give ways to get some fresh air or hang out.
When things get too much for the main caregiver at home, Marian's Care Home offers short-term respite stays to give families some breathing room, and they can also support hospice care for comfort at the end of life. For those with memory loss, the staff have programs and special care to help with daily routines and maintain routines to make things feel predictable and safe. The place has regular visits from podiatrists, dentists, and a mobile barber or hairdresser, so needs like feet, teeth, and haircutting don't mean taking a long trip somewhere else, and transportation help can be set up for shopping trips, doctor's visits, or church services, with parking on site for those who drive or have visitors. Nurses are on staff or on call, with the staff overseeing medicines to help make sure nothing important gets missed. Residents who need two-person assistance or support with insulin can sometimes get that help, which is good for those with bigger needs. Suites come in several styles, so people can pick what feels right for them and settle in with their own touches.
The monthly cost starts at $3,000 and changes depending on how much care is needed, room type, and whatever extra services someone wants, and payments can come from private pay, long-term care insurance, or Veterans Aid and Attendance, but Medicare isn't accepted unless the home is specifically certified for it. Marian's Care Home handles both men and women, welcomes family visits, and tries to make an environment where friendships can grow, and everyone's treated with kindness. Rules and operations are overseen by the California Department of Social Services. The home's set up to offer privacy and support, giving seniors help to stay independent as long as they can, and the 5-star reviews show people feel cared for without feeling crowded or lost in a shuffle.
