Part of the FYI Safety Scorecard, the independent safety rating for every California assisted living facility.
Brookdale Riverwalk is a 376-bed assisted living community in Bakersfield, the largest city in Kern County and a major hub of California's Central Valley. This is the single largest Brookdale community in California, operating at a scale that few assisted living communities anywhere can match.
Bakersfield offers a lower cost of living than coastal California while providing access to Kern Medical and Memorial Hospital.
CCRC campus — all care levels on one site
Independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing share one campus. Residents who need more support later can transition without relocating to a different community.
Villa and apartment floor plans
Unit options include studios, one- and two-bedroom apartments, and villas — more floor plan variety than most assisted living facilities.
EMR-based provider coordination
Resident care is tracked via electronic medical records, with updates shared to outside healthcare providers. Relevant if your loved one has existing specialists or a physician who rounds off-site.
Pets are welcome
The community explicitly welcomes pets, confirmed on their assisted living page.
Average safety record
4 serious and 5 minor citations across 57 state inspections, with 8 verified complaints. Ask what's changed and how past issues were corrected when you visit.
376-bed scale
At 376 beds, this is a large, corporate-operated community. Families seeking a smaller or more intimate environment should factor this in.
Tour requests are not self-scheduling
Submitting a tour request online does not reserve your preferred date — a Brookdale advisor calls to confirm availability. Build in lead time when planning a visit.
CCRC pricing varies by unit type and care level
The $4,245/month starting price is one entry point across a multi-level community. Studios, apartments, and villas are each priced differently — ask for a full rate card on your visit.
Pricing is estimated, please contact the facility to confirm.
