Silverado Calabasas is a dedicated memory-care community that admits residents for both long-term stays and short-term respite. Core services center on dementia care, with structured programming that incorporates physician oversight, diabetes monitoring, and regular sessions with an on-site speech therapist. This focus allows the team to address cognitive decline, chronic conditions, and communication difficulties without requiring outside appointments.
Care is delivered inside a fully secured setting, limiting wandering while giving residents freedom to move about the interior and secure outdoor areas. Nurses manage medications, coordinate hospice when needed, and provide incontinence and ambulatory support. Occupational, physical, and massage therapists work on-site, and scheduled visits from an optometrist, dentist, and podiatrist reduce off-site travel. Because the building serves memory-care residents only, staffing ratios, activity schedules, and safety protocols are designed specifically for this population.
Accommodations range from private to companion suites. Depending on the floor plan, rooms may include wheelchair-accessible showers, individual air-conditioning, and in-room Wi-Fi. Community spaces offer a piano for casual music sessions, landscaped outdoor patios for fresh air, and designated parking for guests. Handrails, wide corridors, and other handicap-accessible features support residents’ mobility. Not all accommodations contain every feature, so families should confirm specific details during their visit.
Dining follows an all-day schedule, allowing residents to eat on their own timetable. Meals are prepared by a professional chef and served restaurant-style, with options that include vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, and no-added-sugar selections. International dishes appear regularly, and guest meals are available for visiting family members. Nutritional staff coordinate with the clinical team to adjust textures and portion sizes as medical needs evolve.
Residents have access to an activity center, fitness and yoga programs, sensory-based therapies, and indoor and outdoor walking paths. Social calendars feature happy hours, live-music events, karaoke, birthday parties, dances, intergenerational gatherings, and clubs. A library and computer lounge, raised garden beds, and a swimming pool with jacuzzi provide additional engagement options, while organized outings keep residents connected to the surrounding community.
