Home Sweet Home in Daly City is a state-licensed residential care home that accepts older adults and residents younger than 60. The team manages complex medical profiles, including wound care, oxygen use, special diet preparation, and all levels of diabetes management—from oral medications to injections and sliding-scale insulin. The home is also able to care for individuals living with advanced dementia, adjusting care plans as conditions evolve and coordinating closely with physicians when needs change.
A registered nurse is on the roster and a nurse remains on site 24 hours a day. Direct-care staff have cleared background checks, work an awake night shift, and respond to in-room pull cords. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the staff can handle transfers for residents who walk independently, use a walker or wheelchair, require standby help, or are bed-bound. Security is maintained by staff presence around the clock, and both the front and rear yards are fenced. Residents have access to on-site podiatry services, and a designated activity director schedules structured programming every day.
Private and shared rooms come furnished, and residents may bring décor or repaint if they prefer. Cable service is offered in select rooms, and climate controls are adjustable. Not all accommodations include every feature, so families can review room layouts during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu with the option to order alternates at each sitting. Snacks are stocked throughout the day, and the kitchen prepares texture modifications, carbohydrate counts, and other physician-ordered diet adjustments. Staff remain available in the dining area to cue or fully assist residents who need help at mealtimes.
Residents who smoke may do so outdoors. The building is fully wheelchair accessible and has an exercise room, internet access, a barber and beauty salon, and communal garden areas. On-site religious services are scheduled regularly, and transportation for appointments or errands is available for an extra fee. Medication management and monitoring, housekeeping, and laundry are handled by staff. Pets are allowed for visits—it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. The property is also close to public transportation, giving residents another option for getting around Daly City.
