Aliso Laguna
Alisa Viejo, CA
Formerly a three-story psychiatric hospital, Aliso Laguna Village was redesigned and converted to an 84-bed residential care facility for the elderly, catering to residents with Dementia. The community provides a wide spectrum of Dementia and Alzheimer’s care, from the very early stages to the advanced. Residents reside in private “houses” depending on their level of acuity. Small corridors, eight-foot gypsum board ceilings and cove lighting help the residents feel at home while offering them a better quality of life.
Included in the facility are a variety of social areas, such as living rooms, dens and libraries. On the ground level, enticing gardens, wandering paths, and courtyards offer access to nature while still providing privacy and security. Large and very secure landscaped terraces were added on the upper floors to provide upper-floor residents with the same level of outdoor experience as ground-level residents.
