Market Signals (3)
Housing Demand
Strong demand for senior care services in Fresno County, with WellBe Health's existing PACE program being the fastest growing in California and likely the country, serving approximately 1,000 participants.
Commercial Demand
WellBe Health indicated they will need to cap enrollment at their current facility until the new building opens, demonstrating unmet demand for senior healthcare services in the market.
Sentiment
No opposition received from community outreach including mailers to residents within 1,000 feet and a community meeting in October, indicating positive reception for healthcare development.
