OUR GOAL IS TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL SERVICE WITH INTEGRITY, KNOWLEDGE, EXPERIENCE AND COMPASSION

Our Placement Specialists accompany seniors and their families to local senior communities like Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care and Residential Care homes.

INDEPENDENT LIVING
COMMUNITIES
Independent living communities (also called “IL”) usually have additional services such as:
  • Meal plans (1-3 per day)
  • Housekeeping
  • Multiple daily activities
  • Usually free transportation
  • Encourage socialization with dining rooms for meals, social events, outings, public gathering places, and exercise areas
  • Kitchenettes and/or full kitchens are often in these communities
MEMORY CARE COMMUNITIES
Memory care communities are licensed by the State of California.
  • Run just like assisted living communities with the additional assistance for people with diagnosed dementia
  • Are all secured communities for the security of the resident
  • Some are only for residents with dementia and have a single focus on the different levels of dementia for social, dining and activities and cognitive wellness
  • All staff members in these are trained to assist people with various levels of dementia
  • Other communities that have both Assisted living areas and then a secured area for memory care
  • Separate dining, activities, outings, and events for the memory care residents to help promote safety, wellness, and more cognitive stimulation than the assisted living areas
  • Have some activities and events where both areas of the community can get together with the assistance of a caregiver
