Bethel Lutheran Home in Selma, CA offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, allowing residents to adjust the level of daily support as their needs change. Those who choose Assisted Living receive help with activities of daily living, while Independent Living residents retain a greater degree of self-management and freedom but still benefit from the same campus resources.
