Jan's Home sits in Fountain Valley, California, in Orange County, offering residential care for up to 6 seniors who need help with daily life but don't require hospital care, giving people a sense of a real home rather than a big facility, and you can see that in their smaller group living and home-like setting where each person gets individual attention, and the caregivers stay onsite day and night so there's always someone to help, whether it's with meals, bathing, dressing, or handling medications, and folks there find support managing diabetes, dementia, or even advanced illnesses like cancer thanks to licensed nurses and care aides-it really is the kind of place that tackles a wide range of needs, from memory care and skilled nursing all the way to home health and hospice comfort, all managed in a straightforward way.
Meals are prepared for residents in a common dining area, but some folks like the privacy of their own rooms, each with a bathroom and wheelchair accessible shower, and the team helps with light housekeeping, laundry, and keeps the environment tidy, which lets residents focus on what matters to them. There's organized exercise, on- and offsite activities, transportation to medical appointments, and devotional services for those who want them, so social, physical, and spiritual needs are all part of life here, with outings and access to shopping, pharmacies, and even the nearby Fountain Valley Regional Hospital.
Jan's Home specializes in higher acuity care, so residents who need incontinence help or have more challenging medical issues won't need to leave if their abilities change, because the staff's trained for a range of situations, whether it's memory problems or complex health issues. The home aims for a steady, supportive atmosphere that prioritizes dignity, safety, and respect, and since it only holds six people, families and residents often say it feels close-knit but still professional, which helps everyone feel a bit more comfortable about aging. They also help veterans use the VA Benefits and participate in the Aides & Attendance Program, which eases some costs, and if a main caregiver at home needs a short break, Jan's Home provides respite care, making it a steady option for those who want to keep as much independence as possible while getting the help they need.
