Kern River Transitional Care
We are a skilled nursing home focused on the safety, wellness, and healing of our patients
This place has the best therapy and care in town. My mom was there for a few weeks due to a stroke and she is doing so much better. They work with her daily and gave her back what we thought wouldn’t be possible. The nurses were extremely helpful and compassionate with her through out her stay.
My Mom was at Kern River Transitional Care for 3 weeks and was taken care of extremely well! I’m a retired nurse so I knew what to look for in her care! I have NO complaints whatsoever! She really enjoyed her roommate and the match couldn’t have been better!
I’ve never had a more pleasant experience than when visiting Kern River Transitional Care. The staff are compassionate, caring, and fixated on making me feel welcomed and at home. They provide superb care and have always greeted me with a sweet smile and friendly welcoming.
It’s very clean and most of the staff are very friendly and caring. There’s always a bad apple in the crate and I’m the one to wean them out!
I was very impressed throughout my father’s most recent stay. Wonderful nurses and aids that gave great care with compassionate bedside manner added to the talent of the physical therapist and top notch gym equipment. They got my Father home, strong and happy! That’s impressive!
They create a lasting positive impact.
My Mother was recently a patient and we wanted to Thank you all for a wonderful experience. The Staff was very attentive and would always respond in a timely manner. My Mom had nothing but wonderful things to say about her care team, PT and OT Therapy along with her nursing staff.
Staff was very helpful and respectful, very clean establishment.
Kern River Transitional Care was a pleasant surprise. The nursing staff on a continued schedule monitored my vitals, administered my medication, and with a push of a button was at my bed delivering whatever services I needed courteously and with 5-star customer service.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating to not only me but my loved one staying ther. They gave him a shave and haircut and he was so happy it made his day. Our experience was nothing but positive.
