Maloney Residential Care sits quietly in Gallup, New Mexico, on 920 W Maloney Ave, and folks who live here usually like how small and manageable everything feels, because there are only 5 licensed beds in this assisted living community, which lets residents and staff get to know each other in a more home-like way rather than feeling like just a number, and that's probably pretty important for seniors who might want a close-knit place and personal care as part of everyday life. The staff's on duty around the clock to help with things like dressing, bathing, grooming, and reminders for medications, so residents don't need to worry about being alone if they need help or something goes wrong, and they can just press the emergency call system when they need it, while the whole place is secured for everyone's safety, and there's even fall prevention programs, which gives families a little more peace of mind.
Most folks here eat three meals a day cooked right on site by chefs who can make a good variety for different dietary needs, such as specialized diabetes meals or other restrictions, and if someone likes to eat in the fancy dining room, they can, but there are private kitchenettes too for those wanting something quieter or maybe just a snack when they feel like it. Fully furnished private and shared rooms make life easier, complete with air conditioning, private bathrooms for comfort and dignity, and closets for personal stuff, so moving in, especially with move-in coordination help, feels less stressful and more straightforward. The grounds are landscaped nicely with paths and spots to sit outside in the fresh air, and folks can bring pets if that's part of their routine, which can really help make the place feel like home since pets are welcome too.
Transportation gets planned for medical appointments and shopping, and there's always community and resident-run activities on the daily schedule to get people moving or talking, including arts and crafts, board games, computer access, exercise equipment, and even massage services, so there's more to do than just sit around; group celebrations and special events bring everyone together, so loneliness isn't as much of a worry. Residents also benefit from mental wellness programs tailored to each person's needs and interests, and there's support for common health problems like diabetes, dementia, or other long-term care needs, with custom care plans put together for everyone to match their needs as things change.
Cable TV, Wi-Fi, and telephone services are part of the amenities, and all basic utilities are covered, so seniors don't have to mess with extra bills or home repairs, and there's no need for laundry or linen chores because staff handle those too. Maloney Residential Care makes it possible for seniors to age in a familiar neighborhood while caregivers design personal plans for each resident, whether that's in a studio, a two-bedroom apartment, or a shared room, which is a good thing for those wanting a mix of privacy and community. Licensed under number 5617, Maloney Residential Care doesn't accept Medicare, but it does have state and local licenses, and it's generally considered a well-run and reasonable choice in Gallup for seniors who need assisted living in a peaceful environment with staff always nearby and a sense of regular daily life rather than something too fancy or overwhelming.
