View full state recordLeisure Vale Assisted Living is a 199-bed community in Glendale at the edge of the Verdugo Mountains, near Pasadena and minutes from the Americana at Brand shopping center. The community has been under its current license since 2024 but markets itself as having a 26-year legacy, with long-term residents attesting to decades of consistent care.
Leisure Vale offers assisted living and short-term respite stays, with amenities including chef-prepared meals with locally sourced ingredients, daily outings, an enrichment program, walking paths, and a private courtyard. It accepts Medi-Cal through the ALW program.
Accepts Medi-Cal through the ALW program
Participates in the Assisted Living Waiver, which can meaningfully offset costs for eligible residents. For families navigating assisted living in an expensive market like Glendale, this financial pathway is worth exploring.
Long-term residents speak to consistency
One resident has lived at Leisure Vale for 26 years. Another family's mother was there for over 10 years. Multi-decade tenures from actual residents suggest operational stability and care quality that transcends any individual staff member.
Daily outings and curated activities
The activity program includes daily excursions exposing residents to art, architecture, music, and community events, plus interactive lectures, exercise classes, and special events. This is more than bingo and TV — verify the actual calendar when you visit.
Glendale location with mountain views and urban access
Nestled at the edge of the Verdugo Mountains with nearby access to the Americana at Brand, healthcare facilities, parks, and walking paths. The location balances natural scenery with urban convenience.
Below-average safety record
The FYI Safety Score™ is 4.3 out of 10 (Poor), based on state inspection data. With substantiated complaints and multiple citations, this is a record that demands direct conversation with management. Ask what specific issues were identified and what concrete changes have been implemented.
Current license is only 1 year old
While the community markets a 26-year legacy, the current RCFE license was issued in March 2024. This could indicate a change of ownership or relicensing. Ask directly about what changed and whether the management team and staff remained in place.
199 beds is a large operation
At nearly 200 beds, this is a sizable facility. Visit at different times of day to assess staffing levels, common area energy, and whether the scale feels manageable or overwhelming for your loved one.
