Memory Care
Find joy, connection, and inspiration.
Our goal is to infuse each moment with presence and joy. That begins with residences that are comfortable and familiar, so they feel like home. And care built on real relationships, so our community feels more like family.
Each day you’ll find plenty of opportunities to explore, grow, and enjoy enriching experiences. Our Naya caregivers stay with you throughout your day, helping, laughing, and celebrating accomplishments right along with you. You’ll also enjoy perks like chef-prepared meals and a beautiful outdoor courtyard perfect for relaxing with a good book or catching up with friends.
Embrace the freedom and independence to live well at every step of your journey. Together, we’ll make the most of today and look forward to tomorrow.

With love from Mary, George’s wife and forever best friend.
“I had never been to a bar in my life.” That's where Mary met George 53 years ago, which led to dinner at 2:00 a.m. at a Chinese restaurant — completely forgetting she was supposed to be somewhere 10 hours prior. She met her best friend and the love of her life.
