Ellen Peckler
The Lighthouse of Chico deserves 10 stars! My 92-year-old mother-in-law has lived here for three years. The staff is top-notch, from the CNAs, to the med techs, to management (shout out to Ilona), to the wait staff and every role in between. My mother-in-law is wheelchair-bound and is treated with kindness and dignity. She enjoys meals in the dining room, arts and crafts, gentle stretching, music in the lobby, and holiday celebrations. I would like to individually recognize: L J (caregiver), Abbey (concierge), Jami (caregiver), and Brittany (med tech). L J is dedicated, knowledgeable, skilled, kind, always going above and beyond. He hugs and comforts people (including me). He is an angel on earth. Abbey wears many hats while fulfilling her responsibilities. She is remarkably helpful, in person and over the phone. Abbey is personable, trustworthy and authentic. I truly appreciate her. Jami spends the most time caring for my mother-in-law. Jami is soft-spoken, strong yet gentle, attentive, super efficient, and willing to help in any way. In fact, Jami assists my husband (also wheelchair-bound) when he visits his mother. Thank you, Jami. Brittany is smart, skilled, thorough, and compassionate. She carefully monitors medications. I appreciate that Brittany calls me with updates. What a valuable resource. In a nutshell, I highly recommend The Lighthouse of Chico!

The Lighthouse of Chico is an exceptional facility that truly stands out. It’s always clean, well-maintained, and welcoming the moment you walk in—you can tell they take a lot of pride in what they do. Illona, the Executive Director, clearly runs a tight ship—but in the best way possible. Her leadership shows in every detail. The staff is not only well-trained, but they genuinely care about the residents, creating a supportive and compassionate environment. One of the things that really impressed me is their activities program. They offer some of the best activities in Chico, keeping residents engaged, active, and happy. There’s always something meaningful and fun going on. I also appreciate that they partner with trusted community organizations like Comfort Keepers to provide additional 1:1 support when needed. That extra level of care and flexibility really makes a difference for residents and their families. Highly recommend The Lighthouse of Chico to anyone looking for quality care and a vibrant community!
