Kristi Mattes, Vice President of Ponderosa Communications; Jim Wagner, Sr., Co-Founder of Paintbrush Assisted Living and Memory Care; and Linda Hardy, Executive Director of Paintbrush, appeared live on MeTV’s “Connect With Me” with host, John Malos on Wednesday, July 22nd.

“Iris” is a terrific movie that pairs 87-year-old award-winning documentary filmmaker Albert Maysles, who co-directed “Salesman”, “Gimme Shelter” and “Grey Gardens”, with 93-year-old Iris Apfel.

Our crew is hard at work to meet our 2015 Grand Opening Date! Every day, we’re making tremendous progress with our 75 Assisted Living apartments and 25 secure Memory Care suites. Look at these photos of our progress.

Senior living communities must consider three issues: (1) The necessity of training for experience. (2) The potential in personalizing services. (3) The importance of communication.

We’d like to share a story of one of our team members at another community where several of us have worked. When engaged in his work one December 7th, Environmental Services Director, Arturo Makinano, noticed that one of the residents was having a difficult day.

As we grow older, we are motivated to seek experiences that promote well-being. When it comes to deciding whether to move to a senior living community, something more is at stake than meeting basic needs of shelter and health care.

Although senior living professionals have taken many cues from the hospitality industry – which offers, for example, the Ritz-Carlton's inspiring mantra of “ladies and gentlemen serving ladies and gentlemen” – we seek a way that is unique to Paintbrush Assisted Living and Memory Care.

Are you or a loved one thinking about moving to a senior living community in the Central Valley? Are you just starting to research the possibilities or have you already done your legwork? Do you know the level of service you may need in the near future?

Paintbrush Assisted Living and Memory Care is proud to be the exclusive sponsor of the second annual Casino Royale Fundraiser for the Alzheimer’s Foundation of Central California. This red carpet, "invitation only", black tie optional event will be held at BMW Fresno on Saturday, June 6th from 6:00 to 10:00 pm.
