Harvest Retirement in Buena Park is an assisted-living community equipped to manage a wide spectrum of medical needs. The team admits residents who wander day or night, present elopement risks, or display combative or other challenging behaviors. Support extends to those who rely on oxygen therapy, require special diets, or manage diabetes with oral medications, insulin injections, or sliding-scale coverage. Staff members are trained to work with advanced dementia, providing interventions and monitoring designed to keep residents safe and comfortable.
Care delivery is backed by an RN or LPN, awake staff throughout the night, routine background checks, and 24-hour security. The building’s rear area is fenced, doors are alarmed, and in-room pull cords link directly to staff. An activity director coordinates daily engagement, while onsite podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the community handles transfers ranging from standby help for walker users to two-person or bed-bound moves when required.
Accommodations include furnished rooms with private bathrooms, in-unit temperature controls, basic cable service, and the option for residents to repaint or decorate. Not every room has every feature, so it is best to verify availability during a tour.
Dining offers both a set menu and made-to-order selections, with snacks available around the clock. The kitchen team manages diet modifications for medical or personal needs, coordinating closely with nursing staff to keep nutritional goals on track.
Additional amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and designated outdoor smoking space. A barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, and communal gardens add to daily convenience. On-site religious services, scheduled transportation, and proximity to public transit help residents stay connected to the broader community.
