Senior Care and Post-Acute Rehab Under One Roof

Oxnard Family Circle is not only a great facility for senior care, but also offers post-acute rehab services for seniors and disabled adults.
In an effort to reduce complications and re-hospitalization for patients discharged from hospitals, Oxnard Family Circle ADHC offers a unique medical model whole-day rehabilitation program inclusive of all the services a patient would need upon discharge. Payers can save up to 80% of post-acute rehabilitation costs and decrease re-hospitalization for patients anywhere from 28% to 75% by participating in such programs, which is designed specifically for patients who require skilled quality care during a day (patients go home for nights and weekends). Our facility can completely or partially replace not cost-effective conventional home health agencies and SNFs, if we can transport a patient to us and provide the following individualized services under one roof that meet the medical needs of post-acute patients:
·                  Transportation to and from the center, including access for wheelchair bound patients
·                  Full nursing care including diabetic care, wound care, administering medication, oxygen, etc
·                  Monitoring patients during the same hours of operation as primary care physicians, implementing doctor orders immediately and following up the same day
·                  Two hot dietary meals and assisted feeding as necessary
·                  Physical, occupational and speech therapy conducted individually and in a group setting
·                  Fall preventions program
·                  Social services provided by highly experienced social workers
·                  Psychological counseling
·                  Dietary Counseling, diabetes prevention and education for fast rehabilitation
·                  Nursing education, implementation of preventive medicine
·                  Personal care, including toileting, showering, podiatry, feeding and grooming
·                  Social atmosphere filled with fun activities designed to stimulate rehabilitation

Oxnard Family Circle Adult Day Health Care center is located in Ventura County. We are a community-based program licensed by the Department of Public Health with daily capacity for up to 180 people. We currently employ 19 licensed professionals, 7 assistants and 21 aids who provide steady monitoring and care to as many patients as needed in a given day under one roof.  This is a more affordable option since it does not require personal care aids and licensed personnel including nurses, therapists, social workers, dietitians, etc to travel patient's residence. 


 Our agency offers all inclusive services for day health care, maintenance, post-acute rehabilitation and preventive programs for one flat-fee. This provides a great way to tailor the program to fit the particular need of patients to minimize hospital readmission, improve patient results and save money. 



  Oxnard Family Circle prides itself in providing excellent care to their participants and has a great reputation among the healthcare providers of Ventura County. Our services are widely used by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Medi-Cal, Tri-Counties Regional Center, Long Term Care insurance companies and private parties.  Our post-acute model is a viable and productive service available for all agencies and caregivers in Ventura County.
