Silverado Sierra Vista sits in Azusa, California, and focuses on memory care for seniors, offering independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and continuing care options. The community has private and semi-private apartments with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and furnishings, and semi-private rooms that help keep costs lower. Residents can bring cats or dogs, and pet care is available, which makes things feel more like home for those who care about animals. On the grounds, folks can walk the trails, spend time in the courtyard, or even use the swimming pool, and there's plenty of space indoors, with activity rooms, a fitness room, game rooms, movie theater, library, and a spot for arts, music, and spa services. The place is fully accessible, from wheelchairs to emergency call systems, and it helps residents who need extra help with transfers or more involved care, including use of lifts.
Trained staff, including a full-time registered nurse, caregivers, and a medical director, stay on-site 24/7 and know how to handle memory care challenges, behaviors, and routines for residents with Alzheimer's or dementia, especially for those who wander or have tough behaviors. There's medication management, reminders for daily tasks, bathing help, diabetes care, and incontinence support, plus therapists who visit for foot care, speech therapy, and more. The secured memory care building uses technology like bracelets to keep everyone safe.
Dining includes three meals daily, snacks, restaurant-style settings, and all-day dining with special meals for allergies and diabetes, plus a chef who prepares both Kosher and vegetarian meals, with guest meals and private dining rooms too, and communal dining choices for those wanting more social times. Housekeeping, laundry, and concierge services are included, with move-in help for new residents and transportation and parking offered, some of it free. Visitors see planned leisure, physical activities, and field trips, whether it's exercise classes, Tai Chi, gardening, art and music programs, or spiritual devotion services. The full-time activity director schedules activities that work for folks with memory care needs, with social and group therapy sessions for both residents and families, which can help shape a supportive environment. Silverado Sensory Programs, Brain Healthy Living (Nexus), and Purposeful Design features are built into the routine, supporting each resident's strength and interests, and the staff stays patient and understanding with folks, no matter their activity or behavioral needs.
Silverado Sierra Vista can take those who need respite stays, hospice, and total care needs, handling both the daily routines and the heavier care that often comes with aging or illness, from blood sugar monitoring and insulin injections to more complex nursing or behavioral management. Residents can stay active with walking paths, swimming, outings, pet programs, and hands-on brain fitness classes. Prices average $9,450 for a studio and $7,950 for a semi-private room, with a community fee of $6,500 and a respite care rate of $285. The community aims to bring comfort and dignity while making sure families get plenty of support for their loved ones, with staff who know how to help with whatever level of care is needed, for as long as needed.
