The community is designed to provide support with daily living activities for residents who may benefit from a structured environment and on-site services, while promoting as much independence as possible.

Laundry and dry cleaning are provided to maintain personal hygiene and comfort. For individuals with incontinence, care support is available to ensure dignity and cleanliness. Ambulatory care is provided, supporting residents who are able to walk with or without assistance, but the community is not designed for individuals with substantial physical dependency or immobility issues.

According to feedback from residents and families, the staff at San Bruno Care Home are generally pleasant, informative, and willing to answer questions regarding care and available services. Cleanliness and the helpfulness of daytime staff are frequently noted as positive aspects. However, several reviews indicate concerns about the absence of overnight staff, citing difficulty obtaining assistance with personal needs or mobility during nighttime hours. This limitation can present challenges for individuals requiring frequent or urgent help after hours. Communication with administration and obtaining information about fees and openings has also been reported as inconsistent by some families, and prospective residents may experience delays due to waitlists. Given these factors, the facility is considered most appropriate for residents who do not require overnight care or frequent mobility assistance during nighttime hours. Families recommend the facility for more independent individuals, while advising caution for those who need continuous nighttime supervision or support.
