  • Mother Gertrude Home Description

    Mother Gertrude Home is an assisted living facility in San Fernando, California that offers residents independent living options and daily support services.

    Mother Gertrude Home is run by the Franciscan Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Conception.

    Assisted living facilities are an apartment-style habitat designed to focus on providing assistance with daily living activities.

    They provide a higher level of service for the elderly which can include preparing meals, housekeeping, medication assistance, laundry, and also do regular check-in's on the residents.

    Basically, they are designed to bridge the gap between independent living and nursing home facilities.

    When thinking about how to pay for care, assisted living facilities are generally less expensive than nursing homes, if assisted living is a viable option for your loved one.

    Bishop John J. Ward blessed the Mother Gertrude Balcazar Retirement Home on March 23, 1985.

    Mother Gertrude Balcazar, for whom the residence is named, was a regional superior and mother general of the Franciscan sisterhood.
