Southbay Maxi Care

Southbay Maxi Care sits in Los Osos, California as a small, friendly residential care home for seniors that does its best to make sure everyone feels comfortable, safe, and respected, and it does provide both short-term respite stays and long-term care in a place that tries to feel like home with its furnished private and semi-private rooms, homey touches, and a community dining room where residents can eat scheduled meals or take advantage of all-day dining if they want, and the kitchen staff prepares tasty and nutritious food paying attention to any special diets, allergies, or diabetes care that a resident might need, which is important for well-being and peace of mind. The staff at Southbay Maxi Care works twenty-four hours a day to support each person, whether someone needs help with bathing, grooming, taking medicine, laundry, or even getting out of bed and into a wheelchair, and the trained team can assist people who need mechanical lifts or one-person or two-person transfers, including ambulation or non-ambulatory residents. They do focus on activities, too, with movie nights, games, and social events to encourage everyone to join in physically, mentally, and emotionally, and there are dedicated garden spaces and walking paths for those who like being outside. Southbay Maxi Care can help with behavioral needs and provides focused care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia in a secure memory care building, using technology like wrist alarms to help prevent wandering, and the staff is skilled in helping manage incontinence, aggressive behaviors, and providing diabetes and high-acuity care. Nurses are on staff, there's a doctor on call, and residents get regular visits from medical professionals and care managers who can help with medical appointments, general support, and even financial matters like bill paying. Transportation is available for medical appointments, and the facility includes an emergency alert system along with 24-hour supervision. Residents don't have to worry much about chores, since housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning services are provided, and if someone is moving in, there's help to get settled. Pets aren't allowed, but anyone under 55 of any gender can be accepted. Southbay Maxi Care is licensed under State License number 405800923, with an estimated price of around $5,500 per month, and although smaller than some places, it covers a wide range of care including independent living, assisted living, board and care, non-medical support, memory care, and high-level medical or behavioral support, all within a warm environment where the staff tries hard to know every resident by name and support their comfort, safety, and dignity.
