    Loving, respectful staff; clean home

    My mother was treated like family-loving, respectful staff went above and beyond to make her feel at home. The house is light, cheery, clean, and in a safe neighborhood; I'm extremely happy with her physical care and highly recommend this wonderful place, though it wasn't completely perfect.

    About A Golden Heart Family Care

    A Golden Heart Family Care sits at 13402 Giro Drive in Bakersfield, California, and since 2015, this small six-bed community has offered seniors and adults with disabilities different types of care, from independent living and adult care home support to assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care, so folks here can choose private suites or shared rooms, most with private bathrooms and kitchenettes, all fully furnished and kept cool with air-conditioning. The staff includes trained and compassionate caregivers ready to help 24 hours a day, using a 24-hour call system for emergencies, offering medication management, daily personal care like bathing and dressing, and providing support with daily activities, transfers, and coordinated visits with medical professionals who come by regularly for health checks. Residents don't handle household chores or cooking because housekeeping, linen services, and maintenance free up time for everyone, while meals are prepared using organic ingredients and served in group settings, and special diets like diabetes-friendly meals are offered as needed. There's cable TV, Wi-Fi, and phone service for each resident, plus outdoor areas like a garden and walking paths for enjoying fresh air. The facility welcomes pets for companionship, and everyone can join in scheduled daily activities and community-sponsored events to stay social, while transportation is arranged for medical appointments and errands. Private suites and studio layouts allow residents to pick what fits best, and the staff supports each person's needs through personalized care plans, whether someone needs more independence or extra help. A Golden Heart Family Care holds a license as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) with the number 157208828, and the business is managed by Michelle Ligon. The facility averages a 6 out of 10 rating and isn't BBB accredited, but it does focus on respecting residents' dignity and comfort, aiming for a home-like environment where safety, supervision, and support come first, including respite care for short stays if caregivers need a break. The facility specializes in caring for a small group, so residents get more personal attention and care, whether it's daily life help, health concerns, memory support, or just having someone nearby to assist when needed.
