The Commons at Union Ranch offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, giving residents and their families two levels of long-term support under one roof. Short-term respite stays are available, which can be useful after a hospital discharge or when a caregiver needs a break. Residents with diabetes receive monitoring and assistance tailored to their regimen, and on-site speech therapy addresses swallowing concerns or communication challenges. A secured community layout adds an additional layer of safety for individuals prone to wandering, a critical feature for memory-care residents.
Medical oversight extends beyond daily caregiving tasks. The community provides on-site nurses, medication management, and hospice coordination to help residents remain in familiar surroundings even as needs change. Incontinence and ambulatory care services support those who require hands-on assistance, while occupational, physical, and speech therapists are available to maintain or improve functional abilities. The building is designed specifically to accommodate memory loss, operating as a memory-care-only environment within its secured wings. A visiting podiatrist helps manage foot health, and staff members are trained to recognize early changes in resident conditions so they can act swiftly.
Residences come in multiple floor plans, each equipped with a mix of practical features such as wheelchair-accessible showers, air conditioning, cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, and emergency response systems. Select units add kitchenettes, balconies or patios, and views of landscaped outdoor areas; others may include easy access to the central fireplace, piano, or ground-level decks. Pets are welcome, and parking is available for residents who still drive. Not every accommodation includes every listed feature, so it is important to confirm specific details during a tour.
Dining is handled by a professional chef who prepares three daily meals served restaurant-style, with guest meals available for visiting family members. The kitchen accommodates vegetarian preferences, low- or no-sodium diets, and no-sugar menus to align with medical directives. Routine menu reviews aim to keep offerings balanced and varied, and hydration stations are positioned throughout the property for added convenience.
Residents can stay active through an on-site activity center, fitness programs that include yoga and chair yoga, and a swimming pool for low-impact exercise. Social calendars feature karaoke, live music, happy hours, birthday celebrations, and organized outings into the Manteca community. A library and computer lounge support quiet pursuits, while outdoor areas allow safe access to fresh air. These amenities are coordinated to offer both engagement and structure, reinforcing overall wellness alongside the community’s medical services.
