Located near Highway 280 and minutes from Santana Row and Santa Clara Valley Medical Center, the community emphasizes what it calls the "Poetry of Aging" — a philosophy centered on purposeful daily living.

24-hour care with licensed nursing
Trained care staff available around the clock with full-time licensed nurse oversight for both assisted living and memory care.
