Redefining Memory Care Starting at $5,595
A compassionate approach that prioritizes the whole you.
At The Watermark at Almaden, we understand that the journey through memory loss is personal and unique to each individual. With this understanding, we’ve meticulously crafted a specialized Memory Care neighborhood that caters to the distinct needs of you and your loved ones. Our dedicated program integrates everyone into the rhythms of daily life, fostering meaningful moments of connection, engagement, and growth, thereby promoting long-term well-being.
Our environment, reminiscent of a welcoming bed-and-breakfast, combines the comfort of modern suites filled with soft, natural light and the intimacy of communal areas, including living rooms, patios, and kitchens, always just a short walk away. Specially trained Naya caregivers and Memory Care experts are integral to our Memory Care program. Their specialized role allows them to deeply understand each resident’s behaviors and needs, promoting comprehensive well-being.
Private and semiprivate suites are available within the Memory Care neighborhood, supported around-the-clock by our associates. We promote a warm and social atmosphere, enriched by family-style meals where visitors are always welcome. There’s round-the-clock availability of healthy snacks, and a personalized Pantry Program caters to each resident’s favorite foods and personal mementos.
Moreover, we offer an exciting calendar of events, programs, Extraordinary Outings, and tailored Watermark University classes designed specifically for individuals with memory care needs. We combine structured and spontaneous programs, custom-designed for everyone, in a residential environment adorned with family photographs, keepsakes, and personal histories. Whether you or your loved one is navigating through mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or another form of memory loss, we'll be there for you and your family every step of the way.

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.
