Sunnyside Senior Living Inc

Overview of Sunnyside Senior Living INC

Sunnyside Senior Living INC is a 56-bed assisted living community at 120 20th Century Boulevard in Turlock, Stanislaus County, California, operated as a non-profit by Sunnyside Senior Living INC under administrator Melissa Brichka. 24-hour staffing exists. Licensed in November 2023, the community provides assisted living, memory care, short-term rehabilitation, and respite care.

Clean is the inspection record across the facility’s full operating history. Since licensing, Sunnyside logged 3 total citations against a California average of 10, with zero complaint visits and zero formal complaints filed, compared to California averages of 13 and 14, respectively. No serious citations appear on record. The latest inspection was March 2026.

Religious and spiritual care programming, regularly scheduled social and recreational activities, three meals daily with special diets accommodated, and care coordination with outside agencies are among the amenities. The community’s walk score of 91 reflects a highly walkable location in central Turlock, with shops, services, and medical facilities in reach.

For older adults seeking assisted living or short-term rehabilitation in a smaller, newer non-profit community in Turlock, Sunnyside Senior Living is suitable. It’s where a clean two-year compliance record and a full slate of daily support services define the care environment.
