Testimonials

Mary Lou Martens

“I remember years ago when I lived in Dinuba, my friends would come and tell me, “If I ever retire, Sierra View Homes is where I’d come.” They took me and showed me around and I was impressed. I appreciated that it was not terribly large because you can get to know people so much easier.

Moving from a distance was extremely stressful, but immediately people came over and welcomed me. That was fun. I just had the impression of a very friendly place.

I like that you can be as involved as you want to be here at Sierra View Homes. I love to volunteer and I knew there would be lots of opportunities. Another thing I like about Sierra View is that we have people of different ethnicities here; this is a very inclusive community. And the staff have been wonderful.”

Carroll and Geraldine Strader

Carroll: “We learned about Sierra View Homes through our daughter. We were living down in Arizona when Gerry got Alzheimer’s and our kids thought I was getting too old to take care of her; they thought we needed to be closer to where they live. Before we knew it, we had an apartment here at Sierra View. The apartments are easy to keep clean and they’re close to everything. We are surrounded by wonderful neighbors. We like to sit in the gazebo when the weather is nice. Often 9-12 people gather out there with us to pass the time of day. Every day is a blessing to us.”
Geraldine: “In other words, we love it!”

Jack Fransen

“You aren’t here long and you sense people wanting to help you. I was immediately impressed with the wonderful staff who treated the patients with dignity and love. I become aware that the staff would prepare dishes designed to meet my diabetic health needs. I am also very happy with my room. Upon arrival it was very evident that this is a place that soon makes you comfortable and provides you with a variety of amenities. The more I’m here at Sierra View Homes, the more I like it.”

Mildred Rowland

“In 1993 I became physically indisposed and knew I needed to go to a retirement center. I came here to Sierra View Homes to live in an apartment. I loved my apartment the whole 18 years I was in it. I loved the quiet and the safety. I felt totally safe. And the comradeship and fellowship was just really terrific. My move into Residential Care went smoothly. There was a period of adjustment, but I love it here is Residential as well. I can still go to the fitness center and attend all the other activities that take place here. Now I don’t have to cook or keep house anymore. I feel cared for; just totally cared for! With its Christian atmosphere, this place is a piece of God’s heaven on earth.”
