Park Senior Villas – La Cañada offers Assisted Living, Residential Care Home and Memory Care programs under one roof, allowing residents to remain in place even as care needs change. The team is equipped to manage complex medical profiles that include wandering behaviors at any hour, elopement risk, combativeness, behavioral issues, sleep-cycle reversal, wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, diabetes (both oral medications and insulin injections) and residents younger than 60. Advanced dementia and related cognitive diagnoses are accepted, and on-site podiatry along with coordination for psychiatric services help reduce outside appointments.
Care is delivered by an RN or LPN on staff, a nurse on call 24/7, and caregivers who remain awake through the night. Background-checked employees handle full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing and toileting, while transfer support ranges from standby help to two-person or Hoyer lift moves for bed-bound residents. Safety measures include fenced outdoor areas, door alarms, WanderGuard systems, pull cords, personal emergency response devices and round-the-clock staffed security. An activity director structures daily programming so residents receive cognitive, social and physical engagement appropriate to their abilities.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, some furnished and some left open for personal pieces. Select units include private bathrooms, independent temperature controls, cable service and the option to paint or decorate; features vary by room type, so confirming specifics during a tour is recommended. Wide doorways and wheelchair-accessible layouts support residents who use walkers, wheelchairs or other mobility devices.
Dining follows two formats: a set menu with scheduled meals and an on-order option for those who prefer to choose. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the kitchen accommodates physician-ordered diet modifications such as diabetic, low-sodium or texture-altered plans. Staff offer full assistance with eating when needed and monitor intake to support wound healing, weight maintenance and medication timing.
Amenities include resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty salon, fitness room, communal gardens, internet access, on-site religious services and ALTCS participation. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach local appointments and shopping. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
