Folsom Senior Retreat operates as a residential care home and is equipped to handle a wide range of health needs. Licensed caregivers coordinate wound care, administer oxygen, and manage special dietary requirements, including meal planning for residents who control diabetes with oral medications. The team is trained to support people living with advanced dementia, providing structure and redirection as needed. On-site podiatry and dental services minimize outside appointments and help residents maintain consistent medical oversight.

Safety and reliable assistance underpin daily life. All employees complete background checks, and an awake night shift monitors residents throughout the evening. Both the front and rear grounds are fenced, exterior doors are alarmed, and a PERS system alerts staff to emergencies. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are familiar with every level of mobility support—from simple walker guidance and standby help to one-person transfers or full transfers using a Hoyer lift.

Private and semi-private rooms are available, and some come furnished to make move-in easier. Built-in lighting and ceiling fans help regulate comfort, while housekeeping and scheduled laundry services keep spaces clean. Because room layouts differ, not every accommodation includes all features, so prospective residents are encouraged to confirm specifics during a tour.

Dining emphasizes choice and clinical accuracy. Meals can be ordered to preference, snacks are accessible throughout the day, and in-room service is offered for those who prefer or require it. The kitchen team modifies textures for mechanical chop, puree, or thickened liquids and can create gluten-free, vegetarian, and other doctor-ordered menus to align with each resident’s care plan.

Residents have access to a covered patio with seating, a paved walking path, and indoor recreation that includes a piano for casual use or scheduled performances. Bathrooms feature zero-threshold entry showers to reduce fall risk. Grooming is supported through bi-monthly haircuts, and crown molding adds a finished look to common areas. Exercise Thursdays, monthly live entertainment, and community-coordinated transportation keep residents active and connected.
