Kathryn Jane Residential Care Facility sits in Mission Viejo, California, and is a well-established home for elderly residents who need daily help or memory care. The facility has a California state license number 306001851 and supports up to 6 residents at a time, making it a small and personal place for care. Some call it an Adult Foster Home, Personal Care Home, or Board and Care Home, depending on the state, but here it's always been Kathryn Jane. The house itself has private and semi-private room options for people who want a little more or less privacy, and the space is filled with natural light, views of lush green plants, and walking paths with garden areas, so residents can relax and get a bit of sun or fresh air when they want.
Edilma Avendaño, who's a CNA and M.T. with over 20 years of experience in geriatric and hospice nursing, along with Alfonso Avendaño, oversees staff and keeps an eye on residents' health, both physical and mental, and the on-site caregivers handle daily needs like bathing, dressing, grooming, medicine reminders, helping with mobility, and bathroom needs. For folks who need extra support, like insulin help or transfers that take two people, or special diets for conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure, the team can make those things happen when needed. The home offers memory care for people with dementia or Alzheimer's disease and supports those in need of hospice or respite care.
There's always something planned to keep everyone engaged, from movie nights and music programs to social evenings, exercise sessions, and art or board games. Residents get home-cooked meals shared in a group, and the facility has spaces for things like reading, fitness or maybe even a soak in a hot tub or steam room, depending on availability. There's help with transportation to doctor's appointments, shopping, or religious services, and folks can enjoy community-sponsored events and scheduled daily activities right on site. The facility is close to local shopping, banks, parks, medical offices, and Mission Viejo Regional Hospital, which makes errands and check-ups easier for everyone. Kathryn Jane aims for a comfortable, nurturing home feel, not a big institution, with 24-hour supervision and care, and a staff that works to adjust to each resident's needs and level of independence.
