The Peaks at Santa Rita offers an Independent Living program designed for residents who want to maintain autonomy while having reliable medical oversight on site. Licensed nurses coordinate Medication Management, ensuring prescriptions are filled on schedule, dosages are accurate, and any changes ordered by physicians are implemented promptly. Staff members are available around the clock to respond to emergencies, monitor health status, and arrange additional clinical services through local providers when needed. Routine wellness checks help track blood pressure, weight, and other vital indicators so issues can be addressed early.
Beyond direct medical supervision, the community supports daily wellness with scheduled transportation to off-site doctor visits, coordination of physical or occupational therapy sessions, and organized fitness classes that complement individual care plans. Residents have access to a 24-hour emergency call system, and family members receive regular health updates. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are provided, allowing residents to focus on social and wellness activities rather than routine chores.
Apartments and common areas are designed to make day-to-day living practical and safe. Units may include wheelchair accessible showers, Wi-Fi, private decks or patios, air conditioning, and emergency pull cords, though not every accommodation contains every feature. The community is pet friendly, offers designated outdoor areas, and provides convenient parking. Shared spaces such as a central fireplace lounge, piano area, and landscaped walkways give residents additional spots to gather or relax.
Meals are prepared by a professional chef and served restaurant-style three times a day. Menus include vegetarian selections, low-sodium options, and desserts without added sugar, with staff available to adjust portions or textures as directed by healthcare providers. Guest meals are offered so family members can dine alongside residents, and snacks are accessible throughout the day to support blood-sugar stability and individual nutrition plans.
Residents have a range of amenities meant to sustain an active social calendar. The activity center hosts intergenerational programs, birthday parties, dances, karaoke nights, and live-music events. Fitness offerings include yoga, chair yoga, and structured exercise classes, while outdoor walking paths, swimming pool sessions, and a jacuzzi provide additional ways to stay active. A library and computer lounge, clubs and community groups, regularly scheduled social outings, and happy hour gatherings promote engagement and connection within and beyond the campus.
