Tustin Care Center provides licensed nursing-home care with a focus on clinical oversight and rehabilitation. Skilled nurses are on duty around the clock to manage medications, monitor chronic conditions, and respond to acute health changes. In-house therapy teams deliver physical, occupational, and speech therapies tailored to physician orders, helping residents regain or maintain functional abilities. The facility is equipped to handle complex medical needs such as wound management, IV therapy, and post-surgical recovery, giving families an option when hospital care is no longer required but close medical supervision is still necessary.
Beyond core nursing services, residents have regular access to visiting physicians, nurse practitioners, and ancillary providers such as podiatrists and dentists. Care plans are reviewed routinely with families, and an electronic health record system helps staff track vital signs, medications, and lab results. An emergency call system connects residents to caregivers within seconds, and the building is outfitted with safety features that meet state and federal regulations for skilled nursing facilities. Short-term respite and hospice support are available, and social services staff coordinate discharge planning or community resources when a resident’s needs change.
Resident rooms are offered in both private and shared layouts, each with basic furnishings, accessible bathrooms, and options for personal décor. Some rooms include direct access to the center’s outdoor areas, letting residents enjoy fresh air in a secured courtyard; others may face interior hallways, so specific features vary by location. Climate control, cable connections, and laundry service are standard, but not every accommodation has every feature, so touring the center is the best way to confirm details that matter to a particular resident.
Meals are prepared on site under the guidance of a registered dietitian, with menus designed to support therapeutic diets like low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanical soft textures. Three scheduled meals and between-meal snacks are served daily, and staff provide feeding assistance when needed. The dining room is arranged for wheelchair access and allows residents to socialize, while those requiring bed-side service receive trays delivered by nursing assistants. Resident council meetings offer input on menu selections to keep choices aligned with preferences and medical requirements.
