Happy Memories Senior Care Home in Folsom, California operates as a licensed residential care home. The community is equipped to handle routine and complex medical needs, including professional wound management, oxygen administration, therapeutic diets, and monitoring for residents who control diabetes with oral medications. Staff members are trained to support individuals with moderate dementia and coordinate closely with outside clinicians to keep care plans current.
Support extends to every hour of the day. All caregivers pass background checks, a night shift remains on-site, and security measures include 24-hour staffing, a fenced rear area, and a personal emergency response system that alerts staff immediately. Residents who need help with bathing, eating, dressing, or toileting receive full assistance, and the team performs transfers ranging from walker and wheelchair aid to two-person lifts and full Hoyer lift moves for bed-bound residents. Pet therapy sessions are scheduled on-site to promote emotional well-being.
Private and shared rooms are available, and some come furnished with cable service, routine housekeeping, and scheduled laundry. Motion sensors with wireless alarms are installed in select accommodations to add another layer of safety, but not every room has every feature; families should confirm availability during a tour.
Dining focuses on nutrition management and resident preference. Meals are prepared to order from fresh, seasonal ingredients, with snacks offered throughout the day. Menus rotate to include barbecued items from the house smoker, and staff follow physician-ordered diet modifications without exception.
Residents have access to a wheelchair-friendly layout that includes a movie room, high-speed internet, a covered porch with a view, and an extensive communal garden linked to a walking path. Scheduled violin music therapy sessions add variety to activities, and the community can arrange transportation for medical appointments or errands.
