Summer Springs Board and Care (LIC #: 157204221)

Summer Springs Board and Care, licensed since 2009 as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly, keeps its focus on comfort and safety for older adults and carries the slogan "A Community of Care" along with the motto "Where Love and Care never grow old." The community includes several facilities in Bakersfield-Summer Springs Board and Care, Lerwick Home Care, Tar Springs Home Care, and Serenity Springs Home Care-which all work together under this name. The assisted living service covers both short-term and long-term care, and they follow residents' health needs and personal choices. The place tries to make life feel relaxing, almost like an extended vacation, with support for independence and quality of life. Staff there try to lift residents up and encourage them, paying attention to what each person needs. There are several features for comfort and safety, such as private rooms and a shared female room for those paying privately, and thoughtful touches for anyone with limited mobility. Bathrooms have walk-in showers with grab bars, non-slip flooring, and hand-held shower heads to make bathing safer and easier. The community provides the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) for those who qualify. Teams of professionals stay on hand to help residents, aiming to create a warm, welcoming environment that provides a sense of belonging and care without feeling too much like a hospital but still with the support people might need as they age.
