Vineyard Post Acute in Petaluma offers Assisted Living as its primary level of residential care, backed by physician oversight and the option for respite or short-term stays. Residents have ready access to physical therapy, and the clinical team can coordinate routine doctor visits without leaving the community. This combination allows individuals to maintain daily independence while still benefiting from therapeutic support and temporary recovery programs when needed.
Beyond daily assistance, the community maintains a wide range of on-site medical services. Licensed nurses are on campus around the clock, supported by specialists who provide occupational, speech and physical therapy, memory care oversight, stroke recovery, cardiac monitoring, pain management and wound care. Vision and hearing evaluations, podiatry, dental visits, dialysis coordination and diabetic monitoring are also available. Hospice care, family counseling, and pet-focused therapy programs can be arranged, and a brain-fitness platform is offered for cognitive engagement. Housekeeping and routine wellness checks round out the clinical support system.
Apartments vary in size and layout, and not every unit includes every feature, but residents can expect options such as wheelchair-accessible showers, private baths, balconies or patios, central air conditioning and cable TV. Ground-level suites have easy access to outdoor courtyards and garden paths, while uncovered parking is available for those who still drive. The property is pet friendly, with designated outdoor areas for walks and social outings, and common indoor lounges provide additional space for visits and group gatherings.
Dining is prepared by a professional chef and served restaurant-style, with all-day dining hours for greater flexibility. Menus accommodate no-sugar, gluten-free and low- or no-sodium needs, and the kitchen will prepare guest meals on request. Residents can look forward to occasional barbecues and picnics on the patio, and meal plans are reviewed regularly to align with individual nutrition guidelines set by the clinical team.
Daily life beyond clinical care includes an activity center, a library and computer lounge, fitness programs, raised garden beds and an indoor game room. Residents can take part in lifelong-learning lectures, day trips, wine tastings, live music or theater, trivia nights, Wii bowling and intergenerational projects. Group exercise ranges from stretching classes and chair yoga to tai chi and water activities in the swimming pool. Birthday celebrations, holiday parties and dances are scheduled throughout the year, and staff plan on-site events to ensure a consistent calendar of social and recreational options.
