The Fountains in Yuba City operates as a skilled nursing facility, delivering 24-hour medical oversight for residents who require a higher level of hands-on care. Licensed nurses administer medications, manage IV therapies, perform wound care, and monitor chronic conditions. Rehabilitation services—physical, occupational, and speech therapy—are available on-site for individuals recovering from surgery, illness, or injury. The community also coordinates with residents’ personal physicians, hospitals, and pharmacies to keep care plans current and comprehensive.
Beyond direct medical treatment, the staff maintains individualized care plans that are reviewed regularly to track progress and adjust goals. A registered nurse is on duty at all times, and certified nursing assistants help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and mobility. The building features secure access points and an emergency call system in resident rooms, enabling rapid response to falls or sudden health changes. Scheduled transportation to dialysis, specialist appointments, and other off-site medical visits is provided when needed.
Accommodations include a mix of private and semi-private rooms that can be personalized with residents’ belongings. Rooms may come with adjustable hospital-style beds, accessible bathrooms, basic cable, individual climate controls, and wireless internet; not all rooms include every feature. Shared lounges, television areas, and outdoor patios give residents additional space to socialize or rest. Housekeeping and laundry services are handled by staff, allowing residents to focus on rehabilitation and recovery.
Dining services supply three daily meals prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian, with menus designed to meet clinical nutrition standards and physician-ordered diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanical-soft options. Meals are typically served in a central dining room to encourage social interaction, though tray service to the bedside is available for residents who are unable to leave their rooms. Snacks and beverages are stocked throughout the day, and hydration rounds help ensure fluid intake. Some rooms have space for a small personal refrigerator, but these are not standard in every accommodation.
