Claremont Manor Retirement Community sits on 650 Harrison Avenue in Claremont, California, right among lovely old brick buildings and mature landscaping with paths and a Koi pond, tennis courts, and gardens, and for more than 75 years, it's cared for seniors. The community is part of the not-for-profit Front Porch Family, focusing on comfort, well-being, and long-term support for residents who might need different care as years go by. Folks can choose Independent Living with private studios or apartments, or Assisted Living with help for things like dressing or bathing, and there's Memory Care in the Summer House neighborhood for those with Alzheimer's or other dementias, where the area is secured and quiet with sunlit rooms and a protected courtyard, and the staff pay careful attention to safety and comfort while making sure people don't get confused or wander.
Summer House Memory Care has won awards and offers special programs like SingFit music therapy and unique events to keep minds active and spirits up, and all through the place, the staff treat residents with kindness and patience, helping with medication, personal care, and meals, and skilled nurses are on site when more medical help is needed. There's always something going on-movie nights, fitness, bingo, cultural programs, books in the library, a putting green, and gardens for peaceful strolls-while the kitchen brings chef-prepared meals with a focus on balanced nutrition, and if help with laundry or cleaning is needed, staff handle that too. Residents in assisted living get small refrigerators and microwaves in their rooms, and the range of options covers studios, one-bedrooms, apartments with patios or balconies, even two-bedroom villas for those who want more room, without long-term commitments or large entrance fees. The community has good Wi-Fi, is pet-friendly, and is designed to make life feel cheerful and at home, supporting independence as much as possible, plus there are planning tools and resources available for seniors and their families to use when figuring out costs or care options as needs change. The Claremont Manor team is known for being warm and helpful, and they keep the focus on dignity and respect, always aiming to create a place where folks can feel safe, supported, and connected, whether living independently, needing some extra help, or moving into memory care or skilled nursing under one roof.
