Paradise Valley Care is a wonderful assisted living community in Atascadero, California. It is within dynamic San Luis Obispo County which is part of the Golden State.
Paradise Valley Care has provided superior memory care assisted living in Atascadero to seniors with dementia and Alzheimer's since 1999. Family founded, owned, and run, Paradise Valley Care cares for every resident with dementia and Alzheimer’s as if they were our own family. Our beautiful, 15-bed home on 3 acres in west Atascadero provides a beautiful, enjoyable, and secure environment while our staff provides highly trained, personalized 24/7 awake care.
For nearly two decades we have worked with individuals whose memory is not what it used to be. From mild memory loss to dementia to Alzheimer’s, we are licensed to care for your loved one with respect and dignity. We treat your family like family as you walk through the process of aging and memory loss.
The Alzheimer's Association’s position, and Paradise Valley Care’s practice, is to first use non-drug approaches to managing dementia-related behaviors. These can include:
- Daily, routine activities
- Traveling with the person where they are in time
- Redirection
- Providing a safe, secure space for wandering
Our residents can receive medical care and services while living here. They will be able to see visiting physicians, podiatrist, physical therapist, and more all in the comfort of their room. We take care of all the arrangements and scheduling.
We also provide complete, centrally-stored and secured medication management for all of our residents. You will no longer need to wonder whether your loved one is taking their medication as prescribed, as we provide medication reminders and assistance throughout the day.
Memory loss often leads to a decline in hygiene. At Paradise Valley Care, our basic services include making sure residents are regularly bathed and groomed. In addition, a hair dresser comes to our facility on a regular basis.
Our basic services also include regular laundry service and daily housekeeping. While your loved one is always welcome to do their own personal or household care if they want, we are more than happy to do it for them. As we tell our residents, “That’s what we’re here for!”
All of our friendly staff are trained by industry experts and are experienced in caring for residents through all stages of dementia. They are qualified in elder care and are constantly being trained to stay current on the ever-changing complexities of caring for the elderly. Our caregiver to resident ratio is among the highest in the industry.
Our compassionate and highly trained caregivers pride themselves on providing five-star service, including:
- Home cooked meals featuring fresh fruit and vegetables
- Twice daily individually designed activities
- Afternoon socials
- Weekly outings
Engaging activities are extremely important for memory care. We schedule twice-daily activities for our residents that are designed for their needs and interests. This decreases boredom and promotes a sense of well-being.
Providing for our residents’ social, emotional, and fine and gross motor skill needs is as important to us as looking after their physical well-being. Attention to our residents' needs and services plan and physician’s report informs our decisions on the variety of skill and need-based activities we offer. Resident and family input lets us design activities that everyone will enjoy!
Our mission is to provide excellent, personalized elder care with love and compassion, so that you can get back to being a family and not the caretaker. You can rest assured that your loved one is being cared for by highly trained, loving caregivers in a superior facility. We welcome visits and tours – call today to visit our outstanding home-based memory care facility!
