The Groves of Tustin offers three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can remain in the same community even as their needs change. The memory-care program is equipped to support residents who wander during the day or night, attempt to elope, stay awake overnight, or live with advanced dementia. Clinical oversight accommodates oxygen use, special diets, and residents under 60, and staff are trained to monitor diabetics who manage the condition with oral medications.

Registered and licensed nurses are on site and on call around the clock, backed by an awake night shift, routine background checks, and 24-hour security. The community uses door alarms, fenced outdoor areas, WanderGuard technology, pull-cord alerts, and personal emergency response systems to keep residents safe. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and staff can perform standby, one-person, two-person, or bed-bound transfers using walkers and wheelchairs. A visiting podiatrist provides on-site foot care, and a full-time activity director coordinates daily programming tailored to each care level.

Apartments are designed for varying budgets and tastes. Some residences include a private bathroom, a kitchenette, individual climate controls, cable service, and the option to personalize with paint or décor; features differ by unit, so families should confirm specific details during a tour. All floor plans are wheelchair accessible and located near emergency call systems.

Meals are prepared to order, and dietitians work with the clinical team to manage diabetic, low-sodium, and other prescribed meal plans. Snacks are available throughout the day, and staff provide full assistance with eating when needed, reducing the risk of unintended weight loss or choking.

Residents have access to on-site parking, outdoor smoking areas, pet-friendly policies, a barber and beauty shop, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, and religious services. Scheduled transportation and proximity to public transit support off-site appointments and errands. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
