White Dove Residential Care Home sits about three miles outside Sunnyvale, California, and has space for just six residents, so folks get to know each other pretty well and things feel more like home than a busy facility, and you'll notice the staff keep up a friendly, helpful attitude and are well trained in caring for seniors who need help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, and grooming. The place covers a range of care needs because they take care of folks with high acuity, incontinence, and they've got specialized memory care for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, tailoring the care plans for each person, and they're able to help if someone's non-ambulatory. It's a licensed facility for elderly residents, providing mostly assisted living and offering respite or short-term stays as an option if you don't need something long-term.
The six studio rooms come with private baths, and people can ask for wheelchair accessible showers and tubs, and if someone likes a room with a view, that's a possibility too. Residents pick between vegetarian and kosher meal options, and the kitchen staff uses good quality ingredients for every meal, so you can count on nutritious food. Folks can get around easily here since there are safety features and accessibility built into the building, inside and out, and the property's set up with both indoor and outdoor common spaces where people gather, visit, or take part in group activities, plus there's a full calendar to help residents stay active physically, socially, and mentally, and folks can join devotional activities or get to the on-site beautician for a haircut right there without much hassle.
Medical staff come in as needed, and if someone needs help with diabetic care or incontinence, that's taken care of too, with the right supplies and know-how. Transportation's available for a fee and there's resident parking if you drive, with bus lines not far off for those who don't. Resident rooms and a lot of the common spaces are wheelchair friendly, so those with mobility needs don't run into trouble getting around. Filipino-speaking staff are part of the team as well, and the home welcomes folks who want a quieter and more private environment compared to bigger places. Memory care services include a secure environment and activities to help with mental engagement for residents who need it, and everyone gets a care plan that fits what they need, whether it's personal care, mobility help, or more specialized support. All in all, White Dove Residential Care Home provides a safe, comfortable setting with meals, activities, and support to help seniors keep up their well-being, and keeps things running smoothly by sticking to a small, community-focused approach.
