Tejada Care Home sits over on Oakwood Avenue in Vallejo, California, in a quiet part of town, and provides care for up to 6 seniors in both assisted living and memory care units, and the place itself is well known for having a friendly staff that folks say are helpful and kind, and sometimes people even mention the meals and activities as being some of the best around, though everybody's needs are different, and there's plenty offered here to help with comfort and daily living. The home has one-bedroom apartments and shared rooms, with smart layouts, pull cords in the rooms, HD TVs, emergency buttons, washers and dryers, and plenty of closet space, plus the floors don't get slippery, so it's safer for folks moving around, and rooms stay furnished unless residents want to use their own things. There's always a nurse on-call 24/7, and trained staff stay in the building day and night, helping with taking medicine, bathing, dressing, transfers, and also taking care of folks with memory issues, and even managing incontinence or diabetes, creating care plans tailored to each person, and doing monthly health checks by a licensed nurse to keep track of changes. Residents get help with moving in and settling down, housekeepers come by for cleaning and laundry every week, and all maintenance gets handled, and even bed making and linen services are included so no one has to worry about the chores piling up.
The dining room is always open for meals, and they've got special menus for people with allergies, diabetes, or any other dietary needs, so if somebody needs low salt or soft foods, they can make it happen, and on top of that, they like to celebrate special occasions with special dining options. Folks can join group trips, games, and arts and crafts, or head out to the garden and walking paths, and there's space for planned gatherings with family, plus an arts room, a computer center and spots for watching TV or joining fitness programs. The home keeps security tight with keypad entry and emergency alert systems, panic buttons, and non-slip floors, and uses wheelchair accessible designs, so residents with walkers or chairs do just fine, and there's always someone ready to help with moving from bed to chairs or around the place. They organize rides for scheduled trips, doctor visits, errands, or outings, and a concierge can help with small requests or answer questions. The community room hosts plenty of activities, planned by the staff to keep everyone active, and there are wellness programs, behavioral health services, and sometimes technology or computer classes, too.
The place is licensed by the state under number 486803789 and has ties to community health and resource networks in town, offering extra support for seniors and families like guides, disaster mental health resources, and connections to advocacy groups or special programs under the Affordable Care Act. Whether somebody needs speech therapy, help with Parkinson's, or just wants a spot where meals, cleaning, and company come easy, Tejada Care Home covers the basics and a little extra, while keeping things simple for everyone living there.
