Colonial Acres Residential
A residential care home on a quiet Hayward street, listed from public records for families to check.
Acerca de
Standish Avenue is a residential street in Hayward, Alameda County, and Colonial Acres Residential is a care home there rather than an institution: a house on a house-sized lot, with caregivers in place of nurses' stations. Celesta Olevares is listed as the owner. This entry was put together from public directory and state records and awaits the owner's review.
Care in a small residential home
A residential care facility for the elderly, the state's term for a board-and-care home, typically houses a handful to a few dozen residents in a converted house with live-in or shift caregivers. The usual services are help with bathing, dressing and mobility, medication management, three meals and snacks, housekeeping and laundry, and activities in a shared living room. Some homes take residents with dementia and describe that as memory care; ask specifically, because it changes staffing.
What a small home does not provide is skilled nursing. Residents who need daily nursing procedures are generally placed elsewhere, and a home of this kind will say so at assessment.
Questions to ask on a tour
Ask for the facility number and look it up on the Department of Social Services' Community Care Licensing site, which shows the capacity, the licence status and any inspection reports. Ask the ratio of caregivers to residents by day and by night, whether a nurse visits, how medications are stored and given, and what happens when a resident's needs increase. Ask which payment sources are accepted, including Medi-Cal, and what the admission agreement says about rate increases and discharge. Visit at mealtime, unannounced if possible.
Hayward and the East Bay

Preguntas frecuentes
Típico de este tipo de negocioWhat is the difference between a board-and-care home and a nursing home?
A board-and-care home is a house with caregivers providing help with daily living; a nursing home provides medical care by nurses around the clock. Residents needing daily nursing procedures usually need the latter.
How do I check a care home's state record?
Every residential care facility for the elderly in California has a facility number. Enter it on the Department of Social Services Community Care Licensing search to see capacity, status and inspection reports. Ask the home for its number.
Does Medi-Cal pay for a board-and-care home?
Some homes accept Medi-Cal through the Assisted Living Waiver programme or SSI-linked rates; many do not. Ask directly which payment sources are accepted and get the monthly rate and what it includes in writing.
