About Divine Mercy Care Homes

Care built around family, not beds.

We started Divine Mercy Care Homes because we believed seniors deserved a real home in their later years — not a wing, not a unit, not a room number. Here’s who we are and how we work.

Our Commitment

Quality of life, not just quality of care

Divine Mercy Care Homes operates small, licensed residential care homes in Southwest Bakersfield. Each home is licensed for six residents — a size chosen on purpose. It lets our caregivers give the kind of hands-on, personal attention that isn’t possible in a facility with dozens or hundreds of residents.

Our name reflects how we approach the work: with patience, compassion, and the belief that every resident, regardless of how much help they need, deserves to be treated with dignity.

What Guides Us

Our Values in Practice

💛

Dignity First

Every interaction, from bathing assistance to mealtime, is handled with respect.

🏡

Real Family Involvement

We invite families into care planning and everyday life, not just annual reviews.

👁

Transparency

Clear pricing, verifiable licensing, and honest answers — even to hard questions.

Consistency

The same caregivers, the same home, the same routine your parent can count on.

Ownership You Can Reach

No call center. No corporate office. Just us.

When you have a question about your parent’s care, you shouldn’t have to wait on hold or leave a message with a front desk. That’s why every family we work with has a direct line to our owner and management team — by call or text.

Our owners and managers visit each home regularly. They know the residents, and the residents know them. When they stop by, they sit with residents, share a laugh, and take a photo to send along to family.

  • Direct call or text access to ownership — not a phone tree
  • Weekly updates delivered to your family’s private group chat
  • Photos from real, regular visits from our owners and managers
  • Questions answered by someone who knows your parent’s name and routine

Frequently Asked

More Questions, Answered

How many residents live in each home?
Each Divine Mercy Care Home is licensed for six residents, allowing for a higher level of individualized attention than larger senior living communities.
Nearly everything: meals, laundry, housekeeping, bedding, towels, and basic personal hygiene products. The main items outside your monthly rate are costs covered by medical insurance and resident-specific needs like incontinence supplies and personal clothing.
Your price is locked in based on the assessment completed before move-in and does not increase as care needs change. If a resident’s needs become medical in nature, their primary care provider may recommend hospice care, typically covered separately by insurance.
Medications are securely stored on-site, and trained caregivers make sure each resident takes their medications as prescribed by their physician.
Common signs include increasing difficulty with daily tasks, safety concerns at home, social isolation, or a family caregiver reaching burnout. Read our full guide on this.
