The Windham in Fresno, California, is licensed to provide both Assisted Living and Independent Living. Assisted Living residents receive daily support, while Independent Living residents maintain a greater level of autonomy. The community does not specialize in dementia care, so families looking for memory support should consider alternative options.
Health monitoring is anchored by an RN/LPN on staff and a nurse available on-site 24 hours a day. Caregivers remain awake on night shift, background checks are completed, and the building is staffed and secured around the clock. Residents can receive full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer help is available for those using walkers or wheelchairs and for individuals needing standby, one-person, or two-person assists. Safety measures include door alarms, emergency pull cords that alert staff or call 911, and personal emergency response systems with the same dual capability.
Apartment options may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, individual climate controls, basic cable service, in-unit laundry, and scheduled laundry services, although not every residence offers every feature. Floor plans are wheelchair accessible, and routine maintenance is handled by on-site staff.
Meals are served three times daily with a set menu, but residents can order alternatives as needed. Snacks are available throughout the day, and meals may be delivered to the apartment for in-room dining. Diet modifications are accommodated. Independent Living residents can opt into medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry service, and a monthly meal plan that offers predictable costs while preserving flexibility.
The Windham’s amenity package includes resident parking, outside smoking areas, pet-friendly policies, wheelchair accessibility, an on-site barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, concierge desk, library, outdoor pool, and a variety of special-interest clubs. The community is close to public transportation and operates both a medical-appointment shuttle and a town car for local trips. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
