The Forum at Rancho San Antonio in Cupertino, CA, provides both Assisted Living and Independent Living, with a primary emphasis on clinical oversight. Staff can manage residents who wander during the day or night, present elopement risks, display combative or other behavioral issues, remain awake overnight, require wound care, use oxygen, follow special diets, or need diabetes management with either oral medications or insulin injections. The community is also equipped to support advanced dementia conditions, allowing residents to remain on site even as care needs increase.
Clinical staffing and safety systems reinforce this medical focus. An RN or LPN is on staff and a nurse is on call around the clock, supported by an awake night shift. Background-checked team members monitor secured doors, fenced outdoor areas, door alarms, pull-cord alerts, and personal emergency response systems. A visiting podiatrist is available for on-site foot care. Residents who need full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, or toileting receive hands-on help, and staff can accommodate transfers that involve a walker, wheelchair, or standby supervision.
Residences range from studio to larger layouts and may feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, furnished living areas, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate. Not every unit includes every amenity, so prospective residents should confirm the specific features of the accommodation they select.
Daily meals are served in a central dining room, offering a set menu as well as cooked-to-order alternatives. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the kitchen can manage physician-ordered diets, including carbohydrate-controlled, heart-healthy, or texture-modified plans. Independent Living residents can opt into medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry service, and a monthly meal plan that reduces the need to cook.
Community services extend beyond direct care. The property offers resident parking, wheelchair-accessible pathways, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and wellness rooms, a movie theater space, communal gardens, on-site religious services, high-speed internet access, and scheduled transportation for shopping or medical appointments. Pets are allowed; it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
