Buttercup Care Home in Concord, CA operates as a residential care home with a clear medical focus. An RN or LPN is on staff, and a nurse is on call around the clock, supporting residents who require oxygen therapy, special diets, or complex diabetic management—whether oral medication, insulin injections, or sliding-scale dosing. The team is equipped to serve adults under 60 as well as seniors and accepts residents with advanced dementia or psychiatric diagnoses. Continuous vital-sign monitoring, medication administration, and coordination with outside healthcare providers round out the clinical oversight available.
Daily support extends to full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Staff members are trained in a complete range of transfer techniques, from standby help to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers, ensuring safe mobility for walker users, wheelchair users, and bed-bound residents alike. Safety protocols include background-checked personnel, an awake night shift, alarms on exit doors, and fully fenced front and rear yards.
Resident rooms are offered in several layouts, and some—but not all—come with cable service. Furnishings can be personalized, and maintenance handles routine repairs. Independent-living residents on the same campus can elect medication-management monitoring, housekeeping, and laundry services to supplement their autonomy without relocating to higher care.
Meals follow a set menu prepared around physician-approved diet orders, with options for sodium restriction, carbohydrate counting, or texture modifications. Snacks are available throughout the day to help manage blood sugar or appetite changes. Staff supervise mealtimes for anyone who needs full assistance with feeding, and hydration checks are part of every shift’s responsibilities.
Amenities include on-site resident parking, outdoor designated smoking areas, full wheelchair accessibility, and communitywide internet access. Scheduled transportation and proximity to public transit make medical appointments and errands straightforward.
