Ohana House is a licensed residential care home in Glendale, Arizona that centers its program on complex medical oversight. The team can accommodate residents who wander, attempt elopement, present combative or other behavioral issues, stay awake throughout the night, require wound care, oxygen therapy or special diets, and supports individuals living with advanced dementia. Diabetes management is offered for those on oral medications, insulin injections or sliding-scale protocols, and the staff is experienced with residents younger than 60 when clinically appropriate.
Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on staff, with a nurse available on call 24 hours a day. Background-checked caregivers provide both awake and asleep night coverage, and the building uses door alarms, perimeter fencing and a personal emergency response system to alert staff. On-site podiatry, audiology, dental services and a dedicated therapy room reduce the need for off-campus appointments, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric conditions. Care assistants can deliver full help with bathing, eating, dressing and toileting, and are trained in all transfer methods—from standby support and walker assistance to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers for bed-bound individuals.
Accommodations include furnished rooms with private bathrooms, independent temperature controls and cable service, and residents may paint or otherwise personalize their living space. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided. Availability of these features varies by unit, so confirming the exact setup during a tour is recommended.
Daily meals are available from a rotating set menu, with on-order selections and between-meal snacks. In-room dining can be arranged, and the kitchen manages physician-ordered diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed or thickened-liquid textures, along with carbohydrate-controlled options for diabetic residents.
Residents have access to parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, high-speed internet, communal gardens, on-site religious services and scheduled local transportation for medical appointments and personal errands.
