Elim Assisted Living, known also as Elim Assisted Living Two, sits in Castro Valley, California, as a small, home-like Residential Care Elderly facility offering assisted living to older adults who want some help but value their independence. The home has six assisted living units and gives care in a friendly, relaxed setting with both private and shared rooms, each fully furnished with kitchenettes, ADA-compliant bathrooms, air conditioning, and pull cords for emergencies, plus cable television, internet, and telephone. Staff provide 24-hour supervision, on-call support, and help with daily tasks like bathing, getting up, dressing, bathroom use, and managing medications, so residents can stay safe and comfortable while doing as much as they're able. Seniors get individual care plans, and Elim Assisted Living can care for folks with dementia, memory needs, diabetes, and incontinence, and can tailor food for special medical diets, with three daily homemade meals using organic ingredients served in a well-lit dining hall.
Residents don't have to worry about chores because staff handle housekeeping, laundry, and linen services, and transportation takes seniors to doctor's appointments or other errands, with on-site parking for visitors. The setting feels small and personal but there's still plenty to do, like arts and crafts, board games, movie nights, exercise and music programs, pet and music therapy, trips to the garden, computer learning, and group activities for holidays or just social time, with a barber or beauty shop, library, steam room or hot tub, book room, and outdoor garden spaces. The facility supports walking paths and community spaces so residents can relax or visit with family and friends.
Elim Assisted Living gives specialized care for things like Alzheimer's, offers respite care for short stays, and can work with two-person transfers or insulin shots as needed. Health checkups come from an on-site registered nurse, and the team coordinates with healthcare providers as needed. The goal is to make sure every resident keeps as much independence and dignity as possible, in a clean, bright, and safe home, where help arrives as soon as it's needed, with friendly staff always around. There's an emergency alert system and personal needs services available day and night, and everything is structured to support both safety and quality of life for each resident.
