Assisted Living Communities in Hanford, CA

"My stepmother-in-law was here for just a very short time, but they were wonderful there. We liked them. It's a small one. It only had like 12 residents on her side, and then the memory care area had 12 patients on that side. So, it was very home-like. The rooms and everything were very nice. The food was very good there. I would recommend them. The workers were just really good. They were very friendly and very helpful. They would take her meals to her. They would take care of her there in her bed and were very kind to her. The place was very clean and very pretty. They had some nice outdoor areas that people could sit in that were lovely. In every way, it was a very sweet little place."

"Vintage Gardens Assisted Living was a 2-story building. I did not see too many residents walking around or in the common areas while I was touring around. The place was clean and the rooms were nice. The dining area was nice, too. They had water available all day for the residents. They encouraged their water intake. It was more restaurant-style dining with separate tables. The staff was good and the residents that I saw looked happy."

"My mom moved into Valley Christian Home. The facility was clean. They were friendly, very helpful, and informative. The people there were just outstanding. When I went in there, they were very welcoming. They welcomed my mom. I couldn't ask for anything better. My mom has only been there a couple of days, but she said the food is good. I was there when they sat down and asked her what she liked and didn't like. They kind of specialize in what she wants, so it was very good. They have an activities director, and he's pretty awesome. He comes in, gets my mom, and takes her down to do activities. They have bingo, events, church, and exercises."

"My wife moved into the Easy Living Senior Home. It's closer to home than some of the others. It's very good. There are only six clients here, so they get better attention. It's just a closer-knit atmosphere. The general care is as good as the previous home my wife was in. It's an overall better experience for her and the people visiting. It was very clean and modern. They cook food to order. There are no real activities. Most of the patients aren't able to do much or lead an active life around the house. The caregivers are great because of the general positive attitude they show and the care they give to their clients and visitors. The food is excellent."

"Bethel Lutheran Home is the closest one to where I live. It's only like a 15-minute drive. I have lived in Kingsburg for years and know many people who put their grandparents, parents, aunts, and uncles here at Bethel Lutheran, and have only had good things to say. And when I came to check on it, I loved the layout, and I loved the fact that if my mother went from having problems more than she did, she could be in the same place, and they would just move her to another area. My mother has just moved in, and this is going to be her second week, and she's enjoying it. She was not happy that this was happening, but it's almost like from the day that they moved her in, the people came in and told her, 'This is going on. Can I show you where it's at?' And it was great. She had many people coming and checking on her making sure she knew where to go and helping her out with things. Our family was just there all the time to constantly be with her or bringing her home, so that it wasn't such a big scare to her that we just dumped her in there. But the thing that got her was that people there were constantly checking to help her out and to show her around. One of the times that I had her sleep overnight, and then as we were talking after, she said, 'I'm ready to go home now.' So that was great that she was willing on her own to want to go. She was comfortable and happy there and the angry look on her face was gone. We went to lunch with my mother on her second day, and the food was good. My mother is always saying how good the food is. She's enjoying it. And my sister and I both went, and she liked it. Their building is what impressed us the most. Nothing looks old. This has been in this town for as long as I can remember, and I'm in my 60s and I was probably 10 or so when I was first aware of this place even existed. The inside is nice. It's not fancy, but it is clean, and everything is kept up."

"Evergreen is the very best at what they can help with, and that is caring for your family member as though they were part of their own family. It is a privately owned facility and every service they provide is the epitome of personal. Martha, the Administrator, and Esmerelda, her Assistant are extremely careful to select staff who not only care for each resident with great love and compassion, but also care for the family and friends of the residents as though an extension of your family. Each staff member displays an obvious passion for what they do. This small home environment was given to us as a gift from God. Mom was only with them for about two months before she passed, and these extraordinary people fell in love with a woman who was already in advanced stages of dementia and had very little capacity to express her own gratitude for the much needed love and care she received. Even when Mom passed these people grieved as though she was their own family whom they had lost. Dementia is such a cruel condition and Evergreen and its Staff offset that cruelty with compassion and love that made it all better; you know, like mommy kissing the hurt so it would go away. They count it a privilege that you would trust them with the one you love. I could go on and on, but just visit them, you'll see what I'm referring to. Oh, and the cost is the best you will find anywhere! This is wholly sincere, and without exaggeration. Take a tour, you won't be disappointed. Thank you again Evergreen! "

"My mother is in memory care at Casa Grande. We chose it because of proximity to my home, it's clean and cheerful, and the facility has what she needs, like activities, games, and large common areas where visitors come in and put on religious music. They have outings for those who are interested and able. They have a hairstylist who comes in if you need that, food and their own kitchen, a podiatrist who comes in on a schedule, a doctor if you choose to use them, and hospice can come in if necessary. The rooms are a nice size. The staff is friendly and personable."

"This is a privately owned assisted living facility for low income residents who are on Medical assistance or in some cases, abandoned by their family and under the assistance of the county or adult protective services. The facility is currently undergoing some flooring replacement, but the whole facility could use a facelift. There was some odor, but nothing obnoxious. They care for some residents that aren't seniors, but are in need of assistance. I was told that they try to serve fresh food, but what I saw looked canned. The rooms had some of the resident's belongings on the floor in bags. There is room to move about outdoors, but the grounds are only a grassy area surrounded by a chain link fence. One of the patient rooms was so hot, they had to leave the door open, while the TV room was very cold and the TV reception was blurry. "

"Our experience touring Palm Village Retirement Community was very good and very nice. I thought it was very well kept and very well organized for memory care. I thought it was great. The rooms were very nice. High-quality upgrades. Good furniture. Everything was nice. The room was more of a studio set-up like a hotel room. They have both skilled nursing and memory care areas, and they also have memory care in the skilled nursing, which is a combination that's hard to find. I saw their rooms, the eating area, and the outdoor garden."

"This is a privately owned board and care facility for low income residents located in a converted, older two story residence near downtown. The staff uses the second story while residents live downstairs. The rooms are small and without bathrooms; some rooms had vinyl tiles missing. Residents were being fed lunch which was canned food; no dining room, just TV trays or small tables. I didn't see activities posted; just a old small TV in the living room where one resident was watching. I didn't detect any obnoxious odors, but the residents didn't look well groomed. If you have no other options, it's better than being on the street, but sad. "

"TLC met our needs 100%. The staff was warm, loving, attentive and knowledgeable of the care my mother required for the short time she had left. The facility was clean, well maintained and odor free. The rooms reminded me of home. They communicated regularly on my mothers condition or concerns. I have over the years visited other assisted living facilities but none have impressed me as much as TLC. I would recommend them to any of my family or friends. "

Dignity Senior Living Home began taking form in the Spring of 2022 after a discussion between David Shipman (President) and Emily Leong (Administer) about the conditions and costs associated with the industry of senior living services.

"We visited Sierra View Homes over at Ridley. It's older, but it was nice. The staff were nice, too. It has a lot of spaces for group activities. The individual senior apartments all have good lighting. They were nice but older, so they could use some upgrades. Some of the apartments were getting new tile or linoleum; they're in the process of upgrading. One good thing about it is that when you live in the independent living, you're guaranteed a spot should you need to move to the other levels, which is really nice. So if you're going to break your hip, you could go to their skilled nursing level. If you get Alzheimer's, you could go to their memory care, and you're guaranteed a spot."

"This facility was very upscale and the staff was very friendly. The rooms were clean and you could tell the staff knew what they were talking about. "
