Silverado Belmont Hills Memory Care Community in Belmont, CA is dedicated exclusively to memory-care and is prepared to manage a wide range of cognitive and medical needs. The staff is trained to assist residents who wander at any hour, present elopement risk, show combative or other behavioral issues, or stay up all night. Clinical support extends to wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes management whether residents use oral medications, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. The community also accepts residents under 60 and those living with advanced dementia.
Care delivery is reinforced by an on-site registered nurse or licensed practical nurse, background-checked caregivers, and an awake night shift. The building is secured with fenced front and rear areas, alarmed doors, and Wander Guard technology. Residents receive full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and the team can perform transfers ranging from walker or standby help to two-person or full Hoyer lift support, including bed-bound care. Podiatry visits are available on-site, and a full-time activity director coordinates therapeutic programming designed for people living with memory loss.
Accommodations include rooms that may feature a private bathroom, cable service, and the option to paint or otherwise personalize décor, though not every room offers every feature. The environment is wheelchair accessible, and families can choose layouts that match the resident’s care plan and budget.
Meals are served from a set menu with snacks always on hand, and the culinary staff manages diet modifications for conditions such as diabetes, cardiac concerns, or texture-altered needs. Independent-living residents who choose to stay on campus can receive medication-management monitoring and scheduled laundry service, allowing them to maintain autonomy while still benefiting from clinical oversight.
Community amenities include pet-friendly policies, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, and scheduled transportation; the campus is also close to public transit for added convenience. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
