Excellent safety record
The FYI Safety Score™ is 9.8 out of 10 (Excellent), based on state inspection data. Even as the facility has been preparing for its transition, it has maintained outstanding compliance standards.
39 years of community presence in La Crescenta
Licensed since 1986, Twelve Oaks has deep roots in the La Crescenta-Montrose area. The name and the oak trees on the property are part of the community's identity — and the redevelopment plan preserves the vast majority of those trees.
Backed by a nonprofit with a mission
ECS is a nonprofit organization that has invested in Twelve Oaks' sustainability since affiliating in 2021. Nonprofit backing means revenue is reinvested in care and infrastructure rather than distributed to shareholders.
Currently closed for redevelopment
Twelve Oaks temporarily closed in February 2025 for a complete campus rebuild. Construction is expected to start in 2026 and take approximately 24 months. The facility is not currently accepting residents.
The new community will be very different
The redevelopment replaces 14 small buildings with one large multi-level structure and triples capacity from 63 to 120 beds. If you're considering the future Twelve Oaks, understand that it will be a fundamentally different community than what existed before.
Timeline uncertainty
The redevelopment is pending city approvals, with construction projected for 2026-2028. Timelines on projects of this scale frequently shift. Don't plan around a specific reopening date.
