Assisted Living Communities in Turlock, CA

"Mom is at Valley Royale Care and it's been an excellent experience. We like that it's smaller, more personalized, private, and quiet, and they're very caring. It's well-kept, clean, organized, and safely built for the residents. It makes it feel very comfortable for them. The food is prepared for them. It's healthy and they're customizing it to their diet. They're also able to do what they like to do, whether they go for a stroll or a walk outside. They can do anything that the resident likes."

"Vintage Faire is very good. I’m very pleased, they take good care of my mom. The place is nice, clean, and well taken care of. The staff is very good there. My mom said the food is good, and she doesn’t miss a meal. They have all kinds of activities, but my mom doesn’t go. They do provide a lot activities though. I thought what they offered for the price was very good. "

"My cousin moved into Astoria Senior Living - Oakdale. I liked the caring personnel that was there, not only dealing with me before he got there, but then after he got there too, and how helpful they are with everything. He's still going through an adjustment period, but they have numerous activities for him. They have live music come in and play. They have art, and he was a graphic artist. He's interacting with other people now whereas before he was a recluse practically in his house because he didn't drive. His apartment is adequate for where he's at, at the moment. He has a nice window that overlooks the courtyard. He has a private bath and a closet. I haven't tried the food, but I saw it because I've been in and it looks wonderful. They have a chef there that cooks, they have access to snacks during the day. I can't say enough about the place. One of the residents that was there, she's there temporarily in the assisted living part, and when I was touring the place, she reached out to me and told me that the place was wonderful. She said, when they say they treat you like family, they do. And so that was very encouraging to have one of the people that is staying there tell me how great it was. "

"I have visited this facility numerous times and always have a pleasant time with all of the staff. They take good care of my mother in law and have made this transition easy on our family."

"Park Merced Assisted Living in Merced, CA is a pretty nice Assisted Living Facility. I went there in the month of June to see my great aunt. It is a fairly old facility, I think around 30 years, but it is still in great condition. During my visits it was always clean and kept up. The staff was friendly and helpful in most occasions. My great Aunt enjoys staying in this facility and has said she has made many friends. She is well taken care of by the nurses and says that they are very sweet. She likes the fact that they offer amenities such as arts and crafts time, as well as bingo. She also mentioned a Music and Performing Arts program that she enjoys. She enjoys the food that is provided here as well. I would rate this facility 4 out of 5 stars, as it is one of the better ones I have been to. "

"My brother-in-law will move to Manteca Assisted Living. It looked clean and maintained. The layout was good. The staff was good. They answered all our questions."

"We were impressed with Lifespring. I liked their sense of care. The woman who showed us around was the manager there. I liked the layout and the courtyard; there was a sense of community, and it felt good. They had a lot of heart, and you don’t always see that. It was a very good one. We saw an activity; it was that part of day where the seniors were in their little activity center there, and it seemed very chatty like everyone was interested in being there. The place didn’t smell even though it is an older place, it has a courtyard, and it was beautiful. They had a piano, they had a different place across the way that you can go, and there was a small but nice little private room, which was all very nicely done for all of that. It is not high-end, and that is the only thing, but that is not important to me. It felt comfy, and it felt like a home. It had a lot of heart, and that was very important. I just felt like there was a lot of care in this place. And I, myself, if that time comes to me, I would be happy moving into this place. "

"My wife moved to St. Francis Assisted Care at the end of March of this year. It's like an apartment complex. They're very helpful. It is clean. They don't have a lot of activities; they spend a lot of time taking care of their residents. The staff is very friendly. They're there to do their job, and they don't mess around, which is good. My wife is a special situation where she seems to be asking for a lot of things, and they're very patient about helping her, getting her what she needs, and taking care of her requirements. They're very attentive, very nice, very good, and very professional. She has a shared room, and there is plenty of space for two persons to occupy the space. They do have other options where you wouldn't have to share a room, but it's cheaper if you will share a room, and it also helps to give them some company, so that they're not always alone. The dining facility is sufficient for the number of people they've got. It's clean, and even right after mealtime, I'm really surprised that it's not a mess. They do have meals on a regular basis that were very substantial. They're pretty conscious about any dietary requirements for any given person. They make sure they give the appropriate meal for the condition of their diet. Their food varies, and it was very good and very well balanced. "

"We stayed in Las Palmas Estates last December. The food is great, the people are great, but they have bedbugs. You don't do very much there. They had a list of activities, we didn't do much, we played bingo. We went to the Christmas party. I think sometimes they have somebody come in and do people's hair. I know they're doing people's nails. They need to listen to their people because I talked to the manager, I told her, other people told me they were being bitten. She says "We don't have bed bugs." I mean, my daughter got bitten terribly, the first night we were there. We brought bedding, and after that, she wasn't."

"My parents like St. Thomas Retirement Center; they're happy there. The room is very clean and fairly large. The staff members are excellent. They are very professional and caring. It is an older establishment from the 1980s, but they're doing some remodeling. It is a very good value."

"I had to place my parent in a home and this was just like having him at my own home. It was well home cooked meals and like family taking care of him."

"We researched many facilities and this was clearly the best one, by far. It's a beautiful 5 Starr Hotel looking place, well managed, a kind and caring staff, the cream of the crop. Great staff and great food, with lots of activities. I would highly recommend it to anyone."

"The facility is very spacious and clean. The staff members were nice and pleasant. The neighbors seemed friendly also. We are hoping to get our family member in here soon!"

"My husband was at Welcome Home for about six or seven months. Our experience was very well. I would highly recommend it. The caregivers were very nice and very supportive of the residents. It's a residential home. They cook their food all from scratch and whatever the resident likes, they would try to make it for them and if they had a favorite food. They had TVs in each room. The caregivers were very sympathetic and very respectful of the residents. The facility was clean and well-lit. They have a backyard with bird feeders and a small garden where they would let them go out there and pick the fruit or the vegetables if they wanted to, but while we were there, they did not have entertainment come in. They would help them do exercises and they watch TV. If they wanted to read, they would read to them, but they didn't have what you would call activities. I think the prices were reasonable."
