2842 Calimyrna

About the 2842 Calimyrna home

2842 Calimyrna Avenue is the third A Place Called Home residence on this quiet Clovis street, a short walk from the other two. Like every APCH home, it is a real house in an established neighborhood rather than a wing of a larger building, and it is licensed by the California Department of Social Services as a residential care facility for the elderly, license 107206901. Six residents live here, each in a private bedroom.

What a family notices first is usually the scale. With six residents and two caregivers through the day, there is roughly one caregiver for every three people, and the same faces return shift after shift. One caregiver stays awake overnight. David Murchison, the registered nurse who founded APCH in 2012, directs the care and is available to the home at any hour. Meals are made from scratch in the kitchen and shared at one table.

2842 Calimyrna provides assisted living and memory care in the same home. That means help with bathing, dressing, grooming and medications for residents who need a little support, and trained dementia care across every shift for those who need more. The monthly rate is flat, with no level-of-care add-ons. Hospice care can be coordinated in the home when that time comes, so residents are not moved at the end of life.
