Fairwinds-Woodward Park Retirement Commmunity

Still one of the best senior living communities in Fresno. I’m sharing feedback I’ve heard from some of the resident ladies.
Food…is not as tasty as it was in previous months. Comments about spiciness though I’m not certain this is a concern, rather it’s an observation. Senior palates tend to be on the bland side.
Activities…are not as frequent and do not offer the variety that was previously offered. I’m inclined to think the staff is trying to change things up a bit.
Turnover…servers of course will move on and change frequently makes sense. Management appears to change often as does kitchen/​chef staff. Haven’t heard complaints but the seniors tend to be «bothered» by the change.
Grounds…I noticed the entryway flowers are dead… come on Fairwinds, this is an easy fix. The grounds landscaping is quite nice, so a little attention to the other details would be nice. Would be nice to see more low water plants like succulents and native California plants.
Accommodations…are quite nice. I would however change the bathrooms. The gigantic tubs are useless as the water pressure is low and the water temp is kept at a safe temp for safety purposes. It would take me a week to fill the tub and a month to heat enough water to enjoy a nice bubble bath. The 2^nd bathroom has a giant tub only… useless. remove the tub, replace with a shower. And while you’re at it, add another vanity.
All in all, this place is a-​okay. It’s the details that need attention.
