Mrs. Scott's Retirement Home

Mrs. Scott's Retirement Home sits in Clovis, California, and offers a small, close-knit community with space for up to six residents, so everyone gets to know each other and the staff pays close attention to everyone's needs, making it feel more like a comfortable home than a large facility, and people can relax indoors or out in shared spaces, enjoy meals made fresh every day, and join in on as many group activities, outings, or quiet times as they want. Residents needing help with daily activities-like bathing, dressing, medication, getting around, or just remembering things-will find staff available around the clock, including licensed nurses and even an RN on call 24 hours, and they help with high level, medical issues like memory care, diabetes, non-ambulatory needs, wound care, hospice, and respite care, even catheter and colostomy care, and they're set up to serve folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, offering memory care programs, regular safety checks, and activities to help with mind and body, from music therapy to games and devotionals to pet visits. The place feels easy-going, with a homey environment, pets allowed, daily newspapers if you want them, internet to keep in touch, and you'll see everything from fitness classes to movie nights and social evenings, and there's a swimming pool, a jacuzzi, a reading room, a game room, and yard areas for walks or sitting outside when the weather's right, plus a beautician visits so folks can get haircuts, and fresh linens and housekeeping keep things tidy, and there's a focus on good meals, with options for folks who want vegetarian, kosher, diabetic-friendly, or specialized diets, and three homemade meals served every day. Smoking's not allowed inside, but there's an area for those who need it, and mobility issues are addressed with wheelchair-accessible rooms and showers, and transfers are assisted by staff, so residents who need more hands-on support aren't left trying to figure it out themselves. The staff does a careful assessment before anyone moves in, looking at each person's likes, schedule, medical history, and social needs so they can match care plans to each individual, and families are welcome to talk things over with them, and if someone arrives on a weekend or needs to move in quickly, same-day admissions can be arranged. The facility handles transportation for medical appointments, errands, and trips to worship, with some rides included and others for a small cost, so folks aren't stuck just sitting around, and the board and care home structure means there are always enough staff to keep up with everyone, reflecting a 3-to-1 resident-to-caregiver ratio, so if someone needs to talk, get help, or join an activity, they're not left waiting. Memory care is a priority here, and living in a smaller group with set routines, familiar faces, and familiar activities can help reduce confusion and make daily life less stressful for residents with dementia, and there are both short-term and long-term care options available. Mrs. Scott's Retirement Home doesn't try to be fancy or over-the-top; it gives seniors a structured, well-run, and cozy place to live, with staff focused on each resident's health, safety, daily comfort, and happiness.
