Belrose Care Home III in Walnut Creek, California, operates as a residential care home with a strong emphasis on medical oversight. The staff manages supplemental oxygen, prepares physician-ordered special diets, and handles the full spectrum of diabetic care, including oral medications, insulin injections, and sliding-scale monitoring. Team members are trained to support residents who live with advanced dementia, providing consistent supervision and tailored care plans to keep symptoms stabilized and residents safe.
A full range of personal-care services is available around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, an awake night staff is on duty, and rooms are equipped with pull-cord alert systems; exterior doors are alarmed and the rear grounds are fenced. The community offers full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer help is matched to the resident’s needs—from standby support for walker users to two-person and mechanical Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound individuals. An on-site activity director coordinates daily programming that accommodates varying levels of mobility and cognition.
Residents can choose from private or companion suites, and some rooms include in-room cable service. Because layouts and features vary, not every accommodation includes every amenity, so families are encouraged to verify what is available in the specific unit they select. Living spaces are kept uncluttered to support safe mobility for wheelchair and walker users.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to meet nutritional guidelines, with adjustments made for medical diets prescribed by a physician. Snacks are available throughout the day to help maintain stable blood-sugar levels and support residents who prefer smaller, more frequent meals. For individuals in the community’s independent-living segment, medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, and laundry services are provided to promote autonomy while ensuring essential support.
Amenities include on-site resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, high-speed internet, communal gardens, and designated outdoor smoking areas. Scheduled transportation is offered, and the property is close to public transit for added convenience. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
