Del Monte in Pacific Grove, California, offers assisted living for older adults who need day-to-day support without giving up a residential setting. Residents can receive diabetes monitoring, help with managing medications, and short-term respite stays when family caregivers are unavailable. A speech therapist is on call for language and swallowing challenges, and the entire property is secured to support individuals who may be at risk for wandering.
The community maintains a clinical team that includes licensed nurses, occupational and physical therapists, and a podiatrist who schedules visits on site. Staff members deliver incontinence and ambulatory assistance, coordinate hospice services when required, and oversee a memory-care-only program for residents living with dementia. Medication management protocols are in place, and the secured perimeter limits unauthorized entry or exit for added safety.
Apartment layouts vary, and not every unit includes each listed feature, but options can include wheelchair-accessible showers, private or shared baths, and step-free access to outdoor areas. The property is pet-friendly for residents who meet the community’s guidelines, and parking is available for those who still drive or for visiting family members.
Daily meals are prepared by the culinary staff, with menus designed to match the nutritional needs of older adults. Vegetarian selections are routinely available, and staff can accommodate individual dietary restrictions when they are communicated in advance.
Residents have access to an activity center for planned programs, permission to spend time outdoors on secured grounds, and organized social outings to nearby destinations.
