Overview of St. John of God Retirement

St. John of God Retirement provides skilled nursing, assisted living, and memory care in Los Angeles, California. Skilled nursing includes licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while assisted living helps with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while the resident maintains their own living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Having these care levels together can suit a resident whose needs grow over time without requiring a move to another community.

The community has 40 beds, creating a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know each other. Housing includes studios, one bedroom units, two bedroom units, and semi private rooms. A studio offers one private space, while a two bedroom unit or semi private room may suit a couple or someone who wants a companion.

An 81 / 100 Walk Score places the area in the very walkable band. Most errands can be done on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may still be able to get out independently. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted, giving families public benefit and out of pocket payment routes. Total nurse staffing is 5h 6m per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time allocated to each resident. Mary Arjene Aguirre serves as administrator, and St. John of God Retirement And Care Center operates the community.
