West Park Senior Living

West Park Senior Living, licensed under Lic # 198603550, is located on Cypress Way in San Dimas, California, and stands as a mid-rise community with a peaceful, suburban setting on five acres filled with green lawns, mature trees, gardens, and scenic views of the San Gabriel Mountains. The community offers studio and one-bedroom apartments with laminate floors, high ceilings, walk-in closets, emergency alert systems, private balconies, and in-unit premium features, and utilities are included in the rent. West Park supports a pet-friendly lifestyle, allowing both dogs and cats, and even has a pet park for residents.

The facility offers a wide choice of senior living options, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and respite stays, plus skilled nursing and continuing care retirement. Residents with memory care needs get a protected facility, individualized routines, and brain-stimulating activities for Alzheimer's and dementia. The team at West Park is fully trained, friendly and recognized for being helpful; staff are onsite and available 24/7 to help with medication management, bathing, dressing, and anything else needed for daily living, with custom care plans for each resident and an assessment process to help decide on the right level of care.

Daily life is built around both comfort and connection, with communal spaces like an elegant dining room serving chef-prepared meals, a cozy fireplace lounge, craft rooms, a billiards area, a TV room, a movie theater, and a coffee bar. There's a chapel with stained-glass angels and an organ, and outdoor patio areas, bocce ball court, walking trails, and landscaping for time outside. Residents have access to laundry facilities, an elevator, and package receiving. Housekeeping, trash, and linen services run routinely, and there's 24-hour emergency maintenance. The on-site management team organizes scheduled transportation for group outings or personal appointments and parking is available for those who have cars.

The atmosphere feels cooperative, with an active calendar full of social events, exercise classes, arts and crafts, brain fitness activities, educational programs, spiritual services, and more, all making it easy to meet new friends. There are resources for care planning and caregiver support, plus both short-term and end-of-life care options, so families can get the level of support needed for their loved one's stage of life. Residents can unwind in the library, workout in the fitness center, join community events, enjoy the garden, participate in religious devotionals, or simply relax by the large windows looking out onto the mountains. The building's exterior is beige with rounded balconies, and monthly community events help keep spirits high.

West Park Senior Living has been recognized for its quality of care, having won Best of Senior Living and Best of Senior Living All Star awards, and you can see this in the way the staff takes care of every resident-whether they're socializing over lunch in the elegant restaurant, meeting for games in the activity room, or spending quiet time in the chapel. All these features come together to offer a modern, comfortable, and caring environment where seniors can live with dignity and enjoy each day.

West Park Senior Living is managed by Pacifica Senior Living.

Pacifica Senior Living, a division of Pacifica Companies (family-owned since 1978), was founded in 2008 and is headquartered in San Diego, California. Operating over 90 communities across 13-14 states with concentrations in California, Florida, and Arizona, Pacifica has grown to become the 13th largest overall senior care provider in the United States. The company ranks as the 5th largest memory care provider, 10th largest assisted living provider, and 21st largest independent living provider nationally, serving thousands of residents from coast to coast through their comprehensive care offerings.

Pacifica's mission centers on creating a lifestyle of independence, security, and peace of mind for each individual and their family. The company provides personalized, compassionate care services through their signature Heartland™ Assisted Living and Legacies™ Memory Care programs, which focus on the individual while offering customized care plans that respect each resident's needs, preferences, and privacy. Their philosophy emphasizes striking a balance between assistance and independence, providing dignified and compassionate retirement experiences in environments that feel like home. Each community is managed individually, allowing for tailored support of unique resident profiles and communal character, with everything from scheduling to dining menus designed around residents' preferences.

The company's specialized memory care programs demonstrate their expertise in dementia care. Their Legacies™ Memory Care program helps patients with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of memory loss feel safe and secure while providing memory-boosting activities. The innovative Amara Memory Support program creates welcoming and empowering environments that celebrate the essence of people rather than focusing on their diagnosis. Programming encompasses nine Focus Elements of Life: Recreation, Service, Spirituality, Movement, Sensory, Household Connection, Community, Exploration, and Creative Arts, delivered through stimulating activities including gardening, culinary adventures, musical experiences, creative artistic outlets, and mindfulness practices.

Pacifica offers a comprehensive continuum of care including independent living, assisted living, memory care, respite care, skilled nursing, and adult day care services. All communities focus on promoting well-being by meeting care needs while facilitating social interactions, activities, and wellness programs. Despite recent financial challenges leading to the bankruptcy of one management entity affecting approximately 20 California facilities, the majority of Pacifica's nearly 100 communities continue operating, maintaining their commitment to advancing senior living and providing peace of mind to residents and families through warm, family-like communities where each resident receives individualized attention while maintaining dignity and independence.
