Cheri Grove in La Habra, California, operates as a residential care home that is prepared to support residents with a wide range of medical needs. The team is experienced in caring for individuals who wander, become combative, require wound care, use oxygen, follow special diets, or take oral diabetic medications. The community also accepts residents under 60 years old and is equipped to support advanced dementia conditions.
Direct care is reinforced by background-checked staff who remain on site around the clock, including an asleep night shift. Exterior doors are alarmed, the rear grounds are fenced, and residents can use in-room pull cords to alert caregivers at any time. Podiatry visits are provided on site. Caregivers can give full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, and they supply some physical help with eating. Transfer capabilities range from standby supervision to one-person and two-person assists, full transfers with a Hoyer lift, and bed-bound care, so residents using walkers or wheelchairs can be accommodated safely.
Private and shared rooms are offered furnished, and residents may paint or decorate to suit personal tastes. Cable television can be added in select rooms. Not every accommodation includes all of these features, so families should verify availability when touring.
Meals follow a set menu that can be adjusted for physician-ordered diets. Staff manage texture modifications, carbohydrate control for diabetics, and other specialized nutritional needs. Snacks are available between meals, and assistance with eating is provided for those who need it.
Cheri Grove is wheelchair accessible and offers internet access, landscaped communal gardens, on-site religious services, and proximity to public transportation, allowing residents to maintain connections both inside and outside the community.
