Avalon Care Home sits in a quiet neighborhood in Fairfield, California, less than forty miles from Sacramento, and it's licensed by the California Department of Social Services for up to six residents, which means people get to know each other and staff can give more attention, and those who stay appreciate the caring, professional staff who help new residents settle into the community, and folks say the staff's really good at supporting people, especially those who need help adjusting to life here. The home offers assisted living and memory care, so seniors who need support with things like bathing, dressing, or help managing medicine get what they need, and the memory care area is built especially for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, with a secure property, technology to help prevent wandering, and therapies and activities to reduce confusion. The care team is there day and night, always awake, and ready to help with everyday routines, like toileting, washing, or getting dressed, and they can handle things like diabetic or incontinence care, even more complex needs, and if someone has behavioral concerns caused by dementia, staff know what to do.
Avalon Care Home has single rooms, studios, and two-bedroom apartments, all with private bathrooms, even full tubs, and they're fully furnished, with wheelchair access throughout, plus safety and handicap features and a sprinkler system in case of emergencies. The community has indoor and outdoor common spaces where people gather, like a cozy room for watching TV, an enclosed courtyard to enjoy mountain views, and areas for activities and social events. There's guest parking and resident parking, and they've got Wi-Fi, cable TV, and even a beauty salon and barbershop on site if someone wants a haircut or needs the mobile stylist who comes by. Folks can have kosher or vegetarian meals, and they get three home-cooked meals every day, served in a dining room, with snacks and special diet requests if needed, and the staff even take care of the laundry and housekeeping. Some rooms come with kitchens or kitchenettes for more independent residents.
People staying here can join in all sorts of programs-workouts, movie nights, music, craft classes, reading, and game nights-organized by a full-time activity director, and the home offers both onsite and offsite activities, board games, animal therapy, and trips outside for shopping, spiritual activities, or just to get some fresh air, with transportation provided for doctor visits or errands. They also offer devotional services and have wellness programs to keep everyone active and social, even for those with memory challenges. There's also respite care for families who need a break, and hospice care for end-of-life support if someone needs that extra peace and support. Avalon Care Home can help as needs change, so residents can stay even as their care requirements grow, getting skilled nursing, wound care, or rehabilitation when necessary.
Avalon Care Home allows smoking in specific indoor and outdoor areas, and accepts residents under 55 in some cases, which gives a bit of flexibility that some places don't. Families who use Avalon Care Home often give high ratings, with review scores near ten out of ten, saying the care, attention, and support stand out, and that everyone from the caregivers to the activity team put in extra effort to make sure people are comfortable and happy. The environment is homelike and relaxed, focused on socializing, safety, and personal care, rather than feeling like a hospital. The goal at Avalon Care Home is to give every resident personalized care and a safe, friendly place to live, whether for just a short respite, memory care, assisted living, or seeing someone through the last stage of life.
