Adat Shalom Manor in West Hills, California operates as a Residential Care Home, a setting designed for residents who need daily support but do not require the intensity of a nursing facility. Staff members monitor chronic conditions such as diabetes and coordinate care plans with the resident’s physician to keep blood glucose levels in check. The care team is present around the clock to assist with activities of daily living, ensuring residents receive help with bathing, dressing, and mobility whenever needed while maintaining as much independence as possible.
The community provides several on-site medical services aimed at reducing hospital trips and keeping residents stable at home. Incontinence management is available for those who need scheduled toileting or supplies. Ambulatory assistance supports residents who use walkers, wheelchairs, or simply need a steadying arm. Medication coordination includes ordering, storing, and administering prescriptions according to physician instructions, with routine audits to minimize errors. When a resident’s condition advances, hospice care can be arranged on-site so that treatment and comfort measures continue without relocation.
Accommodations offer private or shared rooms equipped with basic furnishings, safety grab bars, and emergency call systems; not all units include every feature, so families should confirm specific room layouts during a tour. The building is pet friendly, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Common areas include a television lounge, outdoor patio, and dining room, all kept on a single level to reduce fall risk and ease movement for residents using mobility aids.
Meals are prepared in the community kitchen and served three times a day with optional snacks available. Menus follow general senior nutrition guidelines and can be adjusted for physician-ordered diets such as low-sugar or low-sodium plans. Residents dine together in the main room, but meals can be brought to a resident’s room if recovery or personal preference dictates. Hydration stations with water, juice, and decaf beverages are stocked throughout the day to encourage fluid intake.
