What this means for your family
This facility is an excellent option for families seeking affordable, high-touch care where the owner is personally involved in daily operations. However, due to a highly critical allegation regarding a resident's discharge, families should perform rigorous due diligence and ask specifically about their protocols for resident transitions and crisis management.

While many praise the affordable pricing and attentive staff, one extremely serious allegation regarding a resident being dropped off at a homeless shelter serves as a critical point of concern for potential families.”

Key Review Excerpts
“I have been extremely happy with how Anthony and Barbara run this place. My mom is receiving top quality care unlike our last experience. I am also really happy with their patient to staffing ratio. The rent is very affordable and that is what brought us down there.”
“We thought we'd never find a place we could afford, Mom had dementia and could be combative. Redwood Senior and Anthony really worked with us, not the most modern of places but secure yard, good and nutritious cooking, caring workers too!”
“Redwood Senior Living in Bakersfield is a wonderful place with caring and friendly staff. They treat the residents like family and make every birthday special with thoughtful celebrations.”
