Valley Senior Living, A Century of Our Family Caring For Yours

Care for the body and mind.

From group and one-on-one activities to spontaneous events and a focus on companionship with family, staff, children, and the larger community, residents at Valley Senior Living are reinventing the culture of aging. We encourage each individual in our care to value their sense of creativity and embrace every moment life offers, which leaves little room for loneliness, helplessness, or boredom.

Nourish your spirit with spiritual care.

Stay connected to your faith, receive counseling and prayer support, take part in worship services, spiritual learning and growth opportunities, and even request communion or anointing as needed. Our Christian-based care community welcomes residents of all faiths and staffs two full-time Chaplains and two flex-time Chaplains who provide personal visitations, regular Bible studies, grief support, memorial services, and support to feel connected to your faith.

Creating Connections Across Generations

Intergenerational programming is a multi-faceted program at Valley Senior Living care communities, providing positive connections to younger generations. Resident interactions with younger generations develop cognitive, social, and emotional learning skills for all generations. With an on-site Head Start classroom, and middle school and high school planned activities, residents and children of all ages interact often, and the joy this brings to our communities is heartwarming.

The Eden Alternative

The Eden Alternative helps us create a joyful environment, sense of family and community, and respected residents. As a registered member of the Eden Alternative, we embrace the aging experience by following their philosophy.

The Eden Alternative uses a set of 10 principles to promote their values. It identifies seven primary domains of well-being, ultimately helping meet the needs of those we care for. All of their training strategies are designed to de-institutionalize and transform the culture of care wherever Elders live.

Valley Senior Living has been a proud member of the Eden Alternative Registry since 2016.
