Citrus Hills Assisted Living in Orange, CA delivers standard assisted-living care with an emphasis on consistent medical oversight. The staff can manage oxygen use, accommodate special diets, and work with residents younger than 60. Diabetic care extends from oral medications to injections and sliding-scale monitoring, and mild dementia needs are accepted. Podiatry visits are arranged on-site, reducing the need for outside appointments.
Additional care features include an RN or LPN on staff, awake night shift coverage, pull-cord alert systems, and 24-hour monitored security with a fenced rear area. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they can support mobility needs ranging from walker or wheelchair use to one-person and two-person transfers, including bed-bound residents. All employees undergo background checks, and an activity director coordinates daily engagement.
Resident rooms may offer a private bathroom, cable access, and the option to paint or decorate, although these features vary by unit. Families should verify individual room specifications during a tour. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are handled by staff so residents can focus on daily routines.
Meals are ordered individually, with snacks available throughout the day and diet modifications managed as prescribed. Independent-living residents on the same campus can opt for medication-management monitoring, regular housekeeping, laundry service, and a monthly meal plan that mirrors the same dietary controls offered to assisted-living residents.
The community provides resident parking, wheelchair access throughout the building, a movie room, wellness center, high-speed internet, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation is available, and the property is close to public transit for added convenience. Outdoor smoking is permitted, and pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
