Taking the Journey North sits in Petaluma, California, as a small, licensed residential care home with a total of 6 beds for seniors who need daily help and want a community that feels warm and home-like, and the place offers furnished rooms, a dining room for meals, movie nights, and community activities that bring everyone together, so folks don't feel alone and always have something to look forward to, which helps a lot when you're getting older and may need some extra support with daily things like dressing, bathing, transferring, managing medicine, and other regular tasks, and because the caregivers speak English and the building's wheelchair accessible, it makes moving around and asking for help a bit easier for residents who need these features, plus all the basic services like housekeeping, laundry, and meal preparation come standard, along with special dietary options for those who need them.
This community doesn't take Medicare and isn't BBB accredited, but it is licensed by the state of California under License #496804138, and it gets checked by agencies like the Department of Aging to make sure care's up to local standards, and with only six beds, everyone gets a more personal touch, which some families prefer compared to bigger places, because every resident's needs-like memory care for dementia, help after surgery or illness, or just staying as independent as possible while having assistance around-get a bit more focused attention. There are lots of types of support, too, including assisted living, board and care, memory care, skilled nursing, independent living, home care, and even support and referrals for other needs, and you'll also find things like an emergency alert system, help coordinating the move in, 24-hour supervision, and both ambulatory and non-ambulatory care, all in a residential neighborhood setting where everyone still gets the comfort and privacy of a smaller place with familiar faces.
