Avista Senior Living Magnolia in Corona, CA is an Assisted Living community that centers its services on medical oversight and personal health management. Staff members can monitor residents who are up all night, supervise oxygen use, prepare physician-ordered special diets, and manage medications for diabetics who rely on oral drugs. A visiting podiatrist provides routine foot care on site, eliminating the need for outside appointments. The community does not operate a memory-care unit and does not accept residents with dementia diagnoses.

Care is delivered by caregivers under the direction of an on-site RN/LPN, with personnel who remain awake throughout the night and have passed thorough background checks. A pull-cord alert system in each apartment, 24-hour staffing, and a fenced rear yard add layers of security. Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, along with partial help at mealtimes. Mobility services include standby supervision, one-person and two-person transfers, wheelchair support, walker assistance, and full transfers using a Hoyer lift. An activity director schedules daily programs that complement the clinical support already in place.

Apartments vary in layout and may feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option for residents to paint or decorate their rooms. Because not every unit contains every feature, prospective residents should verify specific accommodation details before choosing a floor plan.

Meals are cooked to order, with snacks available throughout the day, and the kitchen team can modify entrées to meet doctor-prescribed dietary needs. Independent-living residents on campus can opt for medication-management monitoring and housekeeping services while enjoying the same flexible dining options as assisted-living residents.

Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an on-site barber and beauty shop, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, and scheduled religious services. Transportation is provided, and the campus is close to public transit. Smoking is permitted in designated outdoor areas, and pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
