Senior Living in Kern County, CA

"My mom is here. The location is amazing. The facility is beautiful, new, clean, and smells amazing. My mom is in the memory care section, and it is very nice, clean, and well taken care of. Also, my mom has been taken care of very well. I'm very pleased with the care she gets there. They get her up every morning and get her out into the center. I like that their memory care section is one big, open section in the middle where all their rooms open into the middle. So they get all the residents out into the center where they have their breakfast and do activities. They're able to interact and see all the residents in the middle. They have an outside area where they can go and sit. They also have different games that they play all day. They have TVs where they can watch movies, do arts and crafts, and do gardening. They have nice rooms, which have a nice closets. The bedroom is nice, wide, and long. Everybody gets a separate bathroom there. It has a walk-in shower, and it's handicapped-accessible all around with pull tags, poles, and handrails. It has two windows that look out, so it's a very nice room. They don't have any shared rooms. Each resident gets their own room. They call me all the time, give me updates, and let me know things that are going on with my mom. There are always daily specials, and you can also order off a menu."

"My mother moved to Magnolia Place's assisted living. When I went there, it just felt like they were going to work very much with my mom to get her to be as independent as possible, and they have done that. They've been very good to her. They have exercise classes twice a day, a movie theater, a beauty shop, and card tables. The food has been good. I've actually eaten there. The wait staff there is very good, too. They're just very attentive and very friendly to visitors and to the residents. The facility is very clean, homey, and welcoming. The activities are there, and you just have to get involved. I think they post them every morning, and you can be as involved as you want to be. They've been very good about making sure everyone knows about them. They're posted everywhere, the residents get a copy of them every morning in their rooms, and they're also posted in the elevator. I thought the value for the money was very good, too. They've been so helpful to me."

"I had a relative living at Solstice Senior Living at Bakersfield. So I'm very familiar with it, but fortunately, I can't afford it. They have studio up to two-bedroom apartments. They have cottages also. It's a very, very, clean facility. My father-in-law was living in one of their independent living cottages for a while. It was a two-bedroom. It was beautiful and it would have been perfect, but I couldn't afford it. There was a washer and dryer in there. Everything was supplied. The staff members were very helpful and very friendly. Everything was excellent. I wouldn't complain about anything as far as that facility goes. The staff was very attentive. My father-in-law was very happy there, but he had to go with my brother-in-law, and both of them had to move out of state. I would recommend that facility to anyone who could afford it. The food was good, too. They had a lot of activities for the seniors. They had church service and bingo. They had a bus where they took people shopping. Everything about it was good. There's a little dog park for the dog, too."

"I loved everything about Brookdale Riverwalk. It would be a very nice place to retire. The apartment was very spacious, very bright, and very clean. They had everything you would expect in an independent living place for seniors. The staff who gave the tour was very helpful. Brookdale Riverwalk looked like a very high-end hotel. It's very nice. However, its location is close to the freeway."

"Ivy Park is a beautiful assisted living community. The many rooms for the guests to enjoy (dining room, library/game room, exercise room, movie theater, piano room, etc.) are beautifully furnished and inviting to be in. The apartments are also lovely and ADA friendly. The office, marketing, nursing, executive and reception staff are very kind and place the welfare of the residents at the highest level. The caregiving staff is kind and helpful; they manage to do their jobs while making the residents feel valued and special. Ivy Park at Seven Oaks gives our family great comfort that our Mom is happy and well taken care of. We appreciate you all!"

"The facility smells clean, the staff are courteous and caring. And their price is the lowest in the area. "

"Mom has been at The Rehabilitation Center of Bakersfield for seven weeks now and is really improving a great deal. I really like them. It is very clean, without odor, and effective. There is a nurse and at least two CNAs dedicated to my mom 24 hours a day. They have three activity directors and a really good occupational and physical therapy department. They have a full-time, 24/7 doctor, plus X-rays. They are very good and very conscientious. Everybody is treated with respect and dignity. I always see the staff doing something to keep the place healthy, sanitary, and safe. There are only 100 beds and three nurses' stations. So, there's a very high ratio of nursing care to patients."

"When my loved one was released from a primary hospital her goal was to return to her home. She went to Evergreen where she received excellent care. She had a great room with lots of space and big windows. The nursing staff was knowledgable and efficient while always being polite and considerate. While the patient is their primary concern, they were very kind and accommodating to family and friends as well. The physical therapy and occupational therapy professionals were wonderful. They gave her opportunities to progress at a comfortable rate and were flexible enough to work with her when she was ready. When the time came, administrative staff helped to coordinate with hospice and made sure her last days were comfortable. Staff was even more attentive, making sure we all had the support we needed. God bless all the wonderful people at Evergreen for their skill and compassion! "

"We already placed him at Kern Rehabilitation. We are very happy and very satisfied with it. The staff is very nice and very helpful. We really like them a lot, and they really take care of them. It is really close to my home. It is only like a mile from my home, and I just like the whole atmosphere, with the people there and the doctor. They have activities there. They have different things -- like my dad does walking -- and they play games. The have like little concert singing groups. They just have different activities. "

"My sister is a current patient of this facility and I am up there at least twice daily checking on her. When I first arrived, the day she came I was totally blown away by how clean the front admittance area was!, also that ice water/cups were in abundance in the foyer for anyone. The staff were very friendly and helpful and very alert as to the guidelines from CDC. I met and spent some time talking to the marketing manager, Brenda, who is absolutely amazing in my book! They have a dog, Skyler I believe his name is, who visits there a lot and is a huge hit with residents!- I’m a dog lover and rescuer, so this was big for me! I felt very comfortable with facility and staff so much that I almost asked for a work application!- too bad I’m too old!"

"Every time I visit this center it is always very clean and the staff very friendly.They have many activities and a number one facility.There are many good dances and one of the best dance floors in town. "

"The caregivers here are great here. All the staff are caring and so kind. If you can't be at home they all strive to make your stay comfortable and happy. I broke both my ankles and had surgery to put me back together. I'll be here until I heal so about another 4 weeks. I'm in great hands."
