Cardinal Yu Pin Manor sits in Norwalk, California, and holds a state license (number 197607034) to care for up to 49 residents, focusing on a clean, warm, and friendly environment that feels like family, paying attention to everyone's needs with kindness, patience, understanding, and a belief in the "five hearts" principle of love, patience, perseverance, attentiveness, and kindness. Folks find assisted living, independent living, and memory care here, and there's a strong focus on support for both elderly residents over 60 and those under 60 who may need short-term help after surgery, hospitalization, or during chemotherapy. Business hours stretch early and late most days, from 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekdays, and closing a bit earlier on weekends. A senior living advisor can talk with families about what's needed and share options, and finding help is a free service.
Rooms come furnished, with choices between semi-private and studio setups, each with a kitchenette for light snacks, accessible showers, and comforts like telephone, cable, and Wi-Fi. Residents can enjoy communal spaces too, including a dining room with all-day, restaurant-style meals-recipes can fit special diets like diabetes, and folks can grab either 1 or 2 wholesome meals a day, always cooked with an eye on nutrition. For quiet moments or visits families are encouraged to make, there's a library, arts room, and a peaceful garden and walking paths on the grounds. Everything's wheelchair accessible and transportation-either included or at a cost-helps residents keep appointments or take trips.
Daily life is made smoother with 24-hour supervision and a call system, non-medical care staff trained to help with bathing, dressing, medications, transfers, laundry, and mental wellness, plus regular health check-ups, and a professional team that goes through strict interviews and continuing elder care training. There's also respite care for short-term needs, so someone can stay after a hospital visit or if their regular caregiver needs a break. For those with memory conditions, Cardinal Yu Pin Manor offers specialized programs and secure, comfortable housing, with spaces and activities designed to reduce confusion and wandering. Amenities and services include in-room safety features, meal programs, housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, a barber/salon, and parking for residents, while community living means scheduled social activities like art crafts, group movie nights, and shopping outings, most organized and run by the residents themselves.
Care is tailored and flexible, with a strong sense of respect for individuality, privacy, and family traditions, welcoming those from various religious or spiritual backgrounds and encouraging visits to maintain close bonds. The staff believes in showing love, patience, and respect every day; they aim to create a place where everyone feels secure, well-cared-for, and at home. The building honors the memory of Cardinal Yu-Pin, always holding to a tradition of caring for the mind, body, and spirit, and aiming to help each person stay as healthy and happy as possible right where they are.
