The Vineyards Memory Care in Fresno, California, delivers three levels of residential support—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and secure Memory Care—within the same campus, allowing residents to transition without relocating as needs change. Clinical capabilities include wound management, oxygen therapy, and comprehensive diabetic oversight for residents using oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. The community also admits and supports residents with advanced dementia, coordinating care plans that integrate behavioral and cognitive monitoring with primary medical oversight.
Continuous clinical supervision is built into daily operations. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site around the clock, backed by an additional nurse on call 24/7. Night staff remain awake, and the building is secured with door alarms, pull-cord alert systems, and resident-worn PERS devices linked to staff pagers. On-site podiatry rounds reduce the need for outside appointments, and the community is able to accommodate residents with co-existing psychiatric conditions. Direct personal-care services can be delivered at the full-assistance level for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer support ranges from standby help for walker users to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents, ensuring continuity of care as mobility changes.
Apartments are offered in several layouts; some include private bathrooms, some add a kitchenette, and selected units are pre-wired for cable service. Because floor plans differ, prospective residents should confirm which features are present in the specific apartment they are considering. Common areas are designed for wheelchair access, and maintenance staff handle routine repairs. Emergency call systems installed in each unit link directly to the care station.
Dining services provide three daily meals featuring both set menus and made-to-order options, with snacks available throughout the day. Diet textures and therapeutic diets are coordinated with the nursing department. Independent-living residents can opt into a monthly meal plan, choose housekeeping and laundry packages, and enroll in medication-management monitoring that flags missed doses or refills. These optional supports allow residents who enter at the independent level to age in place without scheduling outside services.
Residents have access to on-site parking, exterior smoking areas, and fully wheelchair-accessible common spaces that include a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, and wellness center with internet connectivity. Landscaped communal gardens provide outdoor seating, and scheduled transportation links residents to local appointments and shopping. Religious services are conducted on site for those who wish to attend. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
