The Grove in Fresno, CA provides two principal levels of care—Assisted Living and Memory Care. Assisted Living residents receive help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, mobility and medication reminders, while still maintaining as much independence as possible. For individuals experiencing Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, the Memory Care neighborhood offers a secured environment with staff trained in dementia-specific techniques and structured programming meant to preserve skills and reduce anxiety. The community’s ability to layer services allows residents in either program to remain on campus even as their needs change over time.

Medical support is robust and designed to minimize the need for outside appointments. Licensed nurses are on duty up to 16 hours each day, coordinating medication management, diabetic monitoring, incontinence management and ambulatory assistance. On-site therapy options include physical, occupational and speech therapy; a podiatrist, dentist and vision specialist also make regular rounds. A visiting physician oversees ongoing clinical care, and hospice services are available when needed. Short-term respite stays are accepted, and a structured mental-wellness program addresses emotional and behavioral health. Safety measures include a community-wide emergency call system, fire-sprinkler coverage, secured perimeters, an enclosed courtyard and a wander-management system for residents who may attempt unsupervised exits.

Apartments come in studio and efficiency layouts and may feature kitchenettes, window treatments and individual climate controls. Select units have wheelchair-accessible showers, and all benefit from central air conditioning, Wi-Fi and cable access. Common areas include a central fireplace, piano, library with computer lounge, landscaped grounds and multiple outdoor spaces. Resident parking is available for those who still drive. Because floor plans vary, not every accommodation offers every listed feature.

Dining is available throughout the day, with a professional chef preparing standard menus alongside vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium and no-sugar selections. Residents can expect international dishes as well as regional favorites, and healthy snacks are stocked between meals. Guests may join residents in the main dining room or reserve the private dining space for special events.

Residents have access to a full calendar of programs that includes fitness classes such as yoga, chair yoga and stretching; Montessori-style and reminiscence sessions; arts and crafts workshops; cooking classes; gardening club with raised beds; Wii bowling; karaoke; and regular live-music performances. Social opportunities range from bingo and trivia nights to organized clubs, birthday celebrations, happy hours and holiday parties. Indoor and outdoor walking paths encourage daily exercise, and scheduled off-site outings keep residents connected to the broader Fresno community.
