Fresno Guest Home #19

Fresno Guest Home #19 sits in a quiet neighborhood at 2149 E Menlo Ave, Fresno, California 93710, and looks a lot like a regular house, which is something folks tend to like because it feels more home-like than big facilities, and in this case, it's what they call a board and care home, so that means there's a small group of people living there, never more than six, which makes things a bit more peaceful and personal, and it's been doing this sort of thing for over forty years, being part of the Fresno Guest Homes network run by Xencare II, Inc. The Guest Home offers seniors help with basic things like getting dressed, bathing, managing medicine, and moving around if that gets tough, and staff are on hand day and night for supervision and care, ready for emergencies. The place is wheelchair accessible and set up so everyone can get around safely, and the rooms come already furnished, with a mix of private rooms and cottage-style spaces, so there's a bit of choice if someone wants privacy or a cozy spot. Meals are served at set times in a dining room, and cooks there can work around most allergies or special diets, like for diabetes. Residents share community spaces where they can sit together for meals, join in on movie nights, or enjoy simple group activities, and there's housekeeping, laundry, and someone to help when it comes time to move in. In this place, people can expect caregivers to help them deal with daily living, keep things clean, set up events, and provide board, all while keeping it feeling like a private house instead of a big institution. The state of California keeps everything checked and licensed, making sure the care and safety meets required standards, with License #107209348, and the staff focus on helping each person be as comfortable as possible, whether there for short or long term.
