Bubbe & Zayde's Place IV is a small senior living home in Santa Ana with space for up to six residents, designed especially for Jewish families who want a safe and homey place for their loved ones. The facility provides a range of care, including assisted living, memory care for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, and continuing care so people can get help as their needs change. This place has nurses on staff and on call, with two live-in caretakers, and offers help with bathing, getting dressed, showering, personal hygiene, medication and even insulin doses or two-person transfers if needed, and the staff can help folks who have diabetes, need non-ambulatory care, or have incontinence and high acuity health needs, which means they keep a close watch on people who need more attention. Residents get kosher meals each day, and the kitchen staff can make changes for things like high blood pressure or diabetes, so people don't have to worry about special diets, plus there's a mobile barber and beauty shop coming by, which is nice when someone wants a haircut right in the house.
Seniors who live here can choose private or shared bedrooms and spend time in shared spaces like a living room, a quiet indoor area, and outdoor spots with a garden, backyard, water feature, and even a bunny statue, where people sit in the sun or tend to plants or just relax. Bubbe & Zayde's Place IV tries to keep everyone active with daily schedules put together by a full-time activities director, and there's everything from exercise and yoga classes to card games, bingo, movie nights, book club, and religious services right in the building, plus animal or music therapy sometimes. They also organize trips out to concerts, fairs, community shops, and other places of interest, and they offer complimentary transportation for medical appointments or errands, and residents who drive can use available parking. The home allows pets.
People who need therapy can get physical, occupational, or speech therapy onsite, and there's help for most kinds of health concerns including hospice care, meaning someone can stay even if they get very sick. Bubbe & Zayde's Place IV aims to make a supportive environment where folks can be independent but always know help is close by, and with only six beds, the staff can focus on each person's wishes and needs. This home is licensed by the California Department of Social Services (license number 306001844), has been running since 2003, and costs start around $3,000 a month, changing based on care needs or room choice, and they accept private-pay, long-term care insurance, and Veterans' Aid and Attendance benefits. Tours are available so families and future residents can see the place for themselves.
