About Silverado Sierra Vista

Silverado Sierra Vista is a specialty memory care community, taking care of people with dementia from the time of diagnosis until end of life. We have separate buildings/neighborhoods for our residents depending on the level of care they need and the stage of memory impairment they're in.

Early-Stage Neighborhood: Nexus Living

We have a stand-alone early-stage neighborhood where residents enjoy Nexus Living, a specially designed program for those in the early stage of dementia. This program has been clinically proven to slow down the disease process with non-drug interventions such as physical exercise, stress reduction, social clubs, cognitive strategies, and support groups.

Mid to Late-Stage Neighborhood

We also have a neighborhood for those who are in the mid to late stage dementia, ensuring their needs are anticipated by the staff and met.

Our Mission

Our goal at Silverado is to provide a sense of purpose and peace in a warm and nurturing environment for people with memory impairment. The team here, who are all dementia care certified, are tenured and, for us, being at Silverado is not just a job but a vocation.

Beautiful Environment

It also helps that the community sits on three acres of beautiful outside grounds that's fully secure and accessible to our residents, with breath-taking views of the San Gabriel Mountains.

Visit Us

I look forward to scheduling your visit so you can see for yourself how your loved one can thrive in our environment and enjoy this season in their life.

Location

Our community is easy to find - we're around 2 miles north of the 210 freeway when you exit on Azusa Avenue. Azusa Avenue becomes a one-way street as you drive towards the mountains, and we are on the northeast corner of Azusa Avenue and W. Sierra Madre Avenue.

You can drive straight to the parking lot and on the left will be the main entrance to the community. We have a secure community so there's a doorbell and our front reception will be ready to welcome you anytime.
