Respite Care
Respite care can be defined as a short-term stay for a loved one to allow a respite, or recovery time, for the caregiver. Some of the reasons a caregiver might seek a respite care stay for their loved one include a planned surgery, vacation or needed time to manage their stress and personal health and well-being.
Respite Care at Monterey offers short-term stays that can vary from a few days to a few weeks. We provide furnished respite suites with access to a nursing team 24 hours a day, which includes a personalized plan of care.

Meals provide sustenance on many levels — physical, social and emotional. From enjoying a favorite comfort food to eating with friends, dining at Monterey is an important part of life here.
To provide the same flexibility you’re used to at home, we offer communal meals in dining rooms as well as room service, a beverage cart, snacks, open pantries, guest meals and coffee service. We have seasonal, bistro and heart-healthy bistro menus to meet all needs and tastes.
We make sure our food is just as healthy as it is delicious through registered and licensed dietitians who work with our dining services manager to ensure specialized meals are served. Optimal nutrition is achieved by serving regular or minimally restricted diets that allow for resident choice, determined with the person and in accordance with his/her informed choices, goals and preferences, rather than exclusively by diagnosis.
