The SoCal 55+Housing Council recently honored Oakmont Senior Living with a 2013 SAGE Award for Project of the Year in the continuing care retirement community category during a ceremony in Costa Mesa. Oakmont’s Executive Director Ken Garnett accepted the SAGE Award recognizing Capriana, the company’s resort retirement campus in Brea, for its innovative approach to retired living and continuing care services.
Since 1995, SoCal 55+Housing Council has recognized individuals, projects and programs with SAGE Awards for their efforts and outstanding contributions to enhancing the quality of life for Southern California residents aged 55 and older. This year, Capriana was one of only four community projects to be honored at the 19th Annual SAGE Awards.
Completed earlier this year, Capriana covers 5.5 acres and is currently home to 80 residents. The community offers independent and assisted-living options and a wide range of resort amenities and services including gourmet meals, concierge services, movie theater, salon and day spa and a wine cave. Capriana is a continuing care community and offers 24-hour, in-home medical services and assistance to provide residents the support they need as they age. Services include emergency response systems, personal health assessments and screenings, medication reminders, housekeeping, dietary guidance and temporary in-home care. For individuals with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, Capriana offers Villagio, an on-site memory care center offering specialized services and therapy programs.
Capriana is one of five resort-style retirement communities to be completed by Oakmont Senior Living this year. Locally, the company is developing similar properties in Upland and Chino Hills slated to open during the next year.
