They truly love their residents and it shows
This is the only assisted living community in the area that actually looks and feels like a home (not a facility) and the team and staff and amenities reach far above expectations. I love that they accept ALW, Cal-Aim, Welby, Pace, and many other sources that help with funding for the seniors. The Central Valley needs more places like this place.

After seeing how this team took care of my best friend I recommended Villages At Willow to [name removed] who needed help with medicine management & daily care. [name removed] has now lived at Villages At Willow for almost 2 months and every time we visit she has great things to say about the community and the team. Thank you for providing great service and thank you for being a place people can trust. God bless, Archie & family

Amazing Memory Care that makes a difference
I visited [removed name] at The Villages At Willow he swore he would hate living away from home, 3 months later he's talking about how he never wants to leave and this place is more like family to him than his actual family. Amen for good places like The Villages at Willow

Great location and very caring staff
I recently visited the facility and was impressed with how well maintained all the units were. Each house was equipped with everything the residents would need to make them feel at home. The staff that I spoke with genuinely cared about the residents.

Just Like Home
Finding a home for my mom that didn't feel like an 'institution' was my top priority. Willow is doing something special which is that the 'Small House' model feels like a real neighborhood, not a facility. This makes a massive difference in my mom's dignity and independence.

My experience at villages at willow
Such a peaceful, home-like environment. Everyone is very welcoming and warm. From the moment you walk in, you feel comfortable and at ease, and you’re able to receive the quality care that’s needed. It looks like a residential setting, which gives it more of a home feeling rather than a hospital environment. Very nice and clean.

Independence with Just-Right Support
Mom has thrived at The Villages at Willow's assisted living community since her arthritis made independent living difficult. Staff offer the perfect balance of assistance and respect for independence. Living spaces include subtle safety features that maintain a homelike environment. The nursing supervision is excellent, with careful attention to chronic condition management. The administrative staff simplified complex paperwork, helping us understand insurance coverage and billing processes. Family concerns are addressed promptly and thoroughly. What makes the biggest difference is how they've facilitated Dad's continued passion for woodworking by creating an adaptive workshop.

Finding the Perfect Balance
The Villages at Willow's assisted living community offers the perfect balance of support and independence for my wife. She receives assistance with challenging tasks while maintaining autonomy in daily choices. Her apartment is well-designed with subtle safety features that don't scream "facility." The wellness team monitors her health status with the right balance of attention without hovering. The administration handles billing transparently with clear monthly statements. The activity program offers options that accommodate her interests and energy levels. After the difficult decision to move from our family home, seeing my wife thrive with new friendships has been tremendously reassuring.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know California’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about California’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

A Place for Mom has scored The Villages at Willow 10 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
