Aegis Senior Residence in Antelope, CA, operates as an Assisted Living, Residential Care Home, and Memory Care community, so residents with a wide range of support needs can remain on one campus as conditions change. The care team manages oxygen use, special diets, and diabetics on oral medications and is trained to support residents with mild dementia symptoms. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments, and coordination with other health providers is arranged as needed to keep care consistent and timely.
Daily support is delivered by staff who have passed background checks and who remain reachable through a PERS alert system; an asleep-night shift is in place for overnight needs. Safety measures include a fenced rear area and door alarms. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they handle mobility tasks ranging from walker guidance and wheelchair use to one-person transfers or a full Hoyer lift when required.
Residential accommodations come furnished, and some units allow residents to repaint or decorate to personal taste. Cable hookups, routine housekeeping, and scheduled laundry services are available in many rooms, though not every accommodation includes every feature, so checking specific room details is recommended.
Dining is ordered per meal, and snacks are available throughout the day. Meals can be taken in the dining room, outdoors, or delivered to the resident’s room. The kitchen modifies textures for mechanical-chop, puréed, or thickened-liquid needs and can accommodate vegetarian preferences as well as other physician-directed diet adjustments.
Amenities include wheelchair-accessible common areas, internet access, covered outdoor seating, and designated outdoor smoking areas. Pets are allowed and a house cat lives on site; visiting pets are also welcomed, but it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
