Artesia Christian Home

My grandmother, Martha, lived at Artesia Christian Home for 3.5 years. I visited often and the facility was ALWAYS clean and the staff was superb. Her apartment in Assisted Living was also very clean and it was so comforting to know that she was safe and living well. I would highly recommend ACH as it is the best around. 5 stars!!!

My mother has been in the Artesia Christian Home for the past 10+ years, and she loves it there. The staff are unfailingly kind (and we all know that older people can become very cranky and demanding!) and willing to go out of their way to make residents feel this is their home. Not only is the ACH spotlessly clean, but the dining room serves nutritious and tasty meals. My mother, nearly 96, sometimes complains the food is a little bland, but I remind her that older people for health reasons can't have the excessive amounts of salt and sugar that are part of the Standard American Diet (SAD). All the Housemothers and Housefathers in Assisted Living are amazing in the level of care they provide. When recently my mother came back to the Skilled Nursing side of the ACH after a brief stay in the hospital, she was disoriented, frightened and confused. Nursing and other staff recognized her and immediately came up to welcome her "home", calling her by name, and giving her a hug to reassure her that she would be fine. A close doctor friend told me he has referred patients there in the past. Transition to a Home of any kind for a senior is often a difficult experience for both the senior and family members. The ACH does its best to alleviate those fears and respect the integrity and humanity of its clients. Although it is a Christian facility, they advertise that they do accept residents from all faiths. The only shortcoming I would note is that, since I take my mother to all her doctor appointments, I don't know if they always have the ability to provide transportation for other residents to medical appointments. Other than that, I feel she probably could not have wound up in a better place, which gives ME great peace of mind.

This is the best care facility that I have ever seen. We have had a lot of experience with our parents/step-parents, each time we would research several facilities and then choose the best. Artesia Christian Home tops all of them.

Artesia Christian Home is not only a wonderful place to live but a fantastic place to work. The employees truly love their jobs and the residence here.

I enjoyed coming to work and the place is well cleaned and free of odor....?
