    Compassionate attentive small family hospice

    I chose this small, family-run place for hospice care and have been very pleased - the owners live on site and the long-tenured, tireless staff are genuinely compassionate and know residents individually. Care is prompt, professional and culturally sensitive (Spanish-speaking caregivers); medications and supplies are managed well and staff routinely go the extra mile. The home-like environment is clean, peaceful and well-maintained - private and shared rooms, ample bathrooms, a remodeled dining area, patio and a lovely garden/zen waterfall make it comfortable. Meals/snacks are provided with variety, communication with family is transparent, and I feel my loved one is treated with attentive, personalized care. It's not upscale and activities/respite are limited, but I highly recommend it for intimate, compassionate hospice/long-term care.

    About The Villa Senior Home

    The Villa Senior Home sits in Downey, CA, where it quietly offers care for up to 15 residents and has kept its family-owned approach for years, making sure folks don't feel lost in the crowd and always get respect and honest care. The place has a mix of assisted living, independent living, memory care, nursing home services, and even continuing care, so seniors can find the help they need if needs change over time, and they offer respite and short-term stays for recovery, too. The rooms come with different options like studio, single, two-bedroom, or shared nursing home rooms, each with monthly rates posted ahead of time, while some rooms let people have a kitchen or kitchenette for more independence. The staff sticks around for years with 12 caregivers, including Isaac, David, Corrine, and Samantha, most with over five years at the home, and they keep a ratio of about one caregiver to every five or six residents, which helps every person actually get to know the staff and not just see a different face every day, and they all go through regular training about dementia, Alzheimer's, sun downing, medication needs, infection control, and emergencies, plus hospice and end-of-life care.

    Everyone's on a personalized care plan, which means help only goes as far as needed-some folks just want reminders with medicine and a little help with dressing or bathing, while others need more support with things like wound care or getting around. They help with daily life jobs like grooming, laundry, walking or wheelchair help, transfers, and toileting, and they arrange doctor visits, ride with residents, and speak up at appointments if needed, offering true side-by-side help, and they handle medical and dental transportation. Meals are made in-house, and there are options like vegetarian or diabetic diets, since they know not everyone eats the same. Social and educational activities fill the schedule, along with art, wellness classes, games, and community events, making it easier to stay active, make friends, and feel at home. The grounds have a dining room, game room, guest parking, WiFi, cable TV, a fitness center, a salon or barber, washers, dryers, safe bathing setups, and regular housekeeping, all inside a non-smoking, sprinkler-protected building that passes its annual inspections and follows all health and safety rules.

    Security's covered day and night, with 24/7 monitoring, smoke detectors, safety features throughout, and strict rules for privacy, even letting families ask questions anonymously. The Villa keeps a warm, Christian-based setting where integrity, dignity, and good humor are just part of the day, and every resident matters, which means it feels more like a home away from home, and everyone gets treated like family, since the owners and staff truly want to see people safe, comfortable, and cared for.
