Discovery Commons San Ramon provides two levels of licensed care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—allowing residents to remain on the same campus even as needs change. Both programs are designed to manage complex medical profiles, including residents who wander during the day or night, those who attempt elopement, and individuals exhibiting combative or other behavioral challenges. The community also accepts residents under 60, accommodates special diets, and manages diabetes care whether controlled by oral medication, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. Support for advanced dementia conditions is available throughout the Memory Care neighborhood.
Clinical oversight extends to wound care protocols, oxygen therapy, and continuous nighttime supervision for residents who are up all night. Staff receive background checks before hire, and a full-time activity director coordinates structured and therapeutic programming. Daily living assistance can be delivered at any level: full help with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting is available. Transfer capabilities range from standby supervision to one-person, two-person, and full Hoyer lift transfers, and staff are trained to care for residents who are entirely bed bound.
Accommodation choices typically include private and companion suites with step-free bathrooms, emergency call systems, and individual climate controls; select units add kitchenettes or views of the courtyard, but not every room offers every feature. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are provided on a regular schedule so residents can focus on daily routines rather than household chores.
Meals are served restaurant-style in a shared dining room, with menu planning overseen by dietary staff who coordinate closely with nursing to honor physician-ordered diets, diabetic meal plans, and texture modifications. Snacks are available between meals, and caregivers are present to provide full assistance with eating for anyone who needs it.
Residents have access to internet service for personal devices, landscaped communal gardens for safe outdoor time, concierge support for scheduling appointments or arranging transportation, and an on-site library for quiet reading or small group programs.
