Good Samaritan Board And Care Facility in San Diego operates as a Residential Care Home and is set up to manage a wide range of medical needs. The staff is trained to care for residents who wander, display behavioral issues, require wound care, follow special diets, or are under 60 years of age. Diabetes oversight is available for individuals on oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin, and the team is equipped to support advanced dementia conditions. On-site medical services include regular podiatry visits, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses, allowing continuity of care without the need for outside referrals.

Clinical coverage is reinforced by an RN or LPN and a 24-hour nurse on site. All employees complete background checks, an awake night shift is maintained, and the building uses door alarms, fenced outdoor areas, and a personal emergency response system to keep residents secure. Residents who need hands-on help receive full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from supervision for walker users to one-person and two-person transfers, full transfer with a Hoyer lift, and care for bed-bound individuals.

Rooms are available furnished, and some can be personalized with resident-selected paint colors or decorations; cable service is offered in select accommodations. Because amenities vary by room, families should confirm the exact features available in any unit they are considering.

Meals follow a set menu, and staff manage doctor-ordered diet modifications such as low-sodium, diabetic, or texture-altered plans. Snacks are stocked and offered between meals so residents can maintain consistent nutrition throughout the day.

The community is wheelchair accessible and provides on-site barber and beauty services, an exercise room, internet access, communal gardens, fire sprinklers, and regular religious services, all within easy reach of public transportation. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
