Ridgeview Gardens in Poway, CA delivers both Assisted Living and Residential Care Home services, allowing residents to receive individualized support while remaining in a homelike setting. The staff can manage moderate dementia and is trained to monitor residents who wander during the day or night. Clinical oversight includes oxygen administration, blood-glucose monitoring for diabetics on oral medications, and attention to special dietary requirements. Younger adults—those under 60—can also be accommodated. A podiatrist visits on site, reducing the need for off-property appointments. Direct care staff provide total assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting for residents who need that level of help.
Safety and response systems are in place 24/7. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift maintains constant supervision. The community is enclosed by fenced front and rear areas, with door alarms and a Personal Emergency Response System that alerts staff immediately. Mobility support ranges from standby help for walking to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents. Residents who use walkers or wheelchairs can move throughout the property with assistance. An Activity Director coordinates daily programming designed to meet varying cognitive and physical abilities.
Resident accommodations include private bathrooms in select rooms, basic furnishings, cable hookup, and the option to repaint or decorate personal spaces; not every room has every feature, so it is important to confirm availability during a tour. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are part of the standard package, helping residents maintain a clean and comfortable living environment without additional effort.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to meet nutritional guidelines, and the kitchen can provide texture or ingredient modifications to honor physician-ordered diets. Snacks are available outside scheduled dining hours, ensuring residents have access to food that aligns with individual health requirements throughout the day.
On the services side, Ridgeview Gardens offers resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, internet access, and maintained communal gardens for outdoor seating or short walks. The community can also arrange transportation for medical appointments, shopping, or social outings.
