Golden Years RCFE stands as a large care community in Simi Valley, California, with space for about 50 residents and licensing from California's Department of Social Services under certification ID 565800884, offering a real spread of senior living care options, so folks there can get assisted living, independent living, memory care, skilled nursing, and even continuing care all in one place, and, you know, they've got residential care as part of their assisted living choices. The place tries to help with the everyday things, like getting dressed, taking a bath or shower, going to the bathroom, and just making sure people are clean and comfortable, with trained staff on site around the clock for anybody who needs more help, including those with high acuity, diabetes care, incontinence, and mobility problems, and they can take care of medication too so you don't have to worry about sorting out pills or missing a dose.
They serve three homemade meals a day, and work with residents or families to make adjustments if someone's dealing with diabetes or high blood pressure, so pretty much every meal plan can have kosher or vegetarian options, and they aim to keep the food nutritious while still tasting right. The facility lets folks enjoy a range of things to do, with games played at the table, music therapy, pet therapy, movie nights, programs built around music and art, and, well, sometimes you can just relax outside, maybe take a walk in the garden or head to the fitness room or spa, cause they've got those too. There's emphasis on memory care, so seniors with Alzheimer's or dementia can live in secured areas with extra help, including wandering protection, memory focused activities, and staff trained for folks who get confused or need comfort in a steady environment.
Golden Years RCFE's got a community feeling, with scheduled daily activities, social night events, faith-based outings, transportation help for Doctor visits, errands, or group trips, and if someone's still active but just wanting less day-to-day worry, the place does a good job keeping things feeling homey but not overwhelming. The facility has private and shared rooms with wheelchair accessible showers, and you'll find spaces to read, relax, or gather indoors and outdoors, and they even allow cats and dogs (with a weight limit between 21 and 30 pounds), so your furry buddy isn't left behind. For folks who need advanced care, there's on-site skilled nursing, high-level wound care, and rehab; plus, you can find options like hospice, adult day care, or home care linked to the same service.
Residents use different rooms for community entertainment, quiet reading, exercise, or even a haircut at the salon, and staff support includes things like medical supplies, legal help, and long-term care insurance information all part of their offered resources. The community puts effort into making sure people can keep their independence for as long as possible, working with personalized health plans, helping manage medicines, and providing regular education with checklists and videos for families. Several smaller facilities, such as A Bradley House and Angels II, offer a more homelike, board-and-care setup with only six residents, if someone prefers a quiet residential feel. In short, Golden Years RCFE tries to give seniors a safe place where they can do as much for themselves as possible, but don't need to worry when help is needed-with space to enjoy hobbies, meals that fit special diets, and a choice between different levels of care, all under state-approved standards.
