Assisted Living Facilities in San Jose, California

#1 Assisted Living San Jose - All About Seniors
Imagine an intimate setting as comfortable as home, but with professional caregivers on site 24/7 to prepare home-cooked meals from scratch, and take care of all the laundry, housekeeping, medications, and other activities of daily living. This type of closeness is only available in a private residential care home. That’s why we invite you to call for a tour.
Client-to-caregiver ratio
Our residents are assisted by a minimum of two staff on site at all times. Our 3:1 client-to-caregiver ratio assures a higher level of care than many facilities with ratios of 10 or 12:1. If a senior needs assistance to the bathroom, there is little or no wait. The cornerstone of our program is our dedicated staff. Our staff will give your mom or dad lots and lots of love and support!
Our houses are more like home because they actually are private homes in safe neighborhoods. And if you have a special request, you can tell Debra or Patrick directly. Should the staff need extra assistance, the owners can return to any home within five minutes because all the senior care homes are located in the same West San Jose/Campbell neighborhood where they live.
Bed and Breakfast
We take pride in keeping our homes clean and cheerful with a cozy atmosphere reminiscent of a high-touch Bed-and-Breakfast. Our caregivers provide “Concierge” level care to our seniors. Our assisted living San Jose facilities have private bedrooms and baths, and accommodate non-ambulatory seniors with direct ramps and wheelchair exits. The homes are surrounded by lovely landscaped yards with sunny decks and shady patios. Our memory care and dementia unit has night staff, a secured perimeter and exit alarms and is in a safe neighborhood where our homes have served the elderly for over 20 years.
In addition to daily activities, we enjoy taking the seniors on outings and field trips and arranging in-home entertainment, parties and other activities.
Shhh! Can you keep a secret?
For some, our niche of elderly care is a well-kept secret. Why? Because, although the level of care is fantastic, most small residential senior care homes (also called “board and care”) cannot afford expensive advertising.
What’s the difference between Assisted Living and Residential Care?
In California, there is basically no difference, other than perhaps a marketing approach. The licensing requirements are the same and all the services are the same, however in some states, the term “assisted living” is applied to large (up to 100+ beds) facilities while facilities with roughly 12 or fewer beds are termed “board and care.”
How do you set your rates?
We determine our rates based on level of care. A senior who is fairly independent may be quoted at the low end of our range. However, as you can guess, costs increase for someone who needs assistance with incontinence, dementia, transfers, or other needs. Rooms that share a bathroom are also typically priced lower. After taking a tour, we set aside time to talk about your senior. At that time we’ll ask you to have the senior’s doctor complete our physician’s report, a family questionnaire, and read our “What to do next” form. After we complete an assessment visit, we can provide a firm quote.

Lincoln Glen Manor
Conceived in 1965 by the Lincoln Glen Church Congregation, Lincoln Glen Manor was built in 1969. At that time, the community felt a responsibility to care for its senior population. As a result, the concept of Lincoln Glen Manor was instituted as a caring community for seniors adjacent to Lincoln Glen Church.
