Sunset Homes I sits in Laguna Niguel, California, and has two privately owned care homes just a half mile apart with six residents in each, so things stay quiet and personal, and the owner keeps a current RN license and started the place back in September 1990, which might say something about experience and attention. The homes focus a lot on memory care, especially for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, and they take in people who need different levels of help, like those who can't walk, talk, or who are bedridden, and they even have waivers for hospice and dementia care from the state. Each house is licensed by the State of California as a Residential Care Elderly facility, License #306006359, and residents get a personalized care plan when they move in, including help with bathing, showering, dressing, eating, transferring, medication management, and even incontinence care, with two care providers per home for more one-on-one support. Folks can pick from small studios and single bedroom units, or communal living setups, with both single and double rooms available, some of them large and bright with sliding doors out to patios, and some rooms are for just men or just women with private bathrooms and privacy curtains.
The staff offers three homemade meals a day, snacks in between, and they'll do special diets for things like diabetes, high blood pressure, or allergies if needed, and there's always fresh linens each week, room cleaning, laundry, medication help, and dry cleaning. People can enjoy walking paths in outdoor areas with fruit trees, garden sitting spots, scheduled daily activities, music and art programs, community events, game nights, movie nights, reading rooms, a game room, HD TVs, a wellness center, barber and beauty shop, and even a chapel for spiritual needs. There's wireless internet, scheduled transportation for doctor appointments and errands, help with moving in, and they'll coordinate with families and medical folks for outside appointments with a nurse involved. The facility's got a perimeter alarm for safety, 24-hour security and emergency alert systems, and a part-time nurse on staff along with trained care workers. Pets like dogs and cats are allowed, and the house has amenities like a communal kitchen, private dining, concierge support, and parking. You've got non-smoking policies for all indoor areas, plus transportation service not just for appointments but also for social outings or church. Beds can be private or semi-private with all furniture provided, and you can see rooms and pick what works alongside family before moving in, and placement depends on how alert someone is and how much day-to-day help they want. The focus stays on comfort, keeping things simple and safe, and making sure everyone gets personal attention. Sunset Homes I earned a 1.0 review score from one review.
