In addition to standard assisted living care, LIVIA provides the services of a continuing care retirement community (CCRC), allowing residents to access various levels of support as their needs change. The facility also includes specialized care options such as memory care for individuals with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation services. LIVIA is designed to offer a modern, hospitality-based environment, featuring spacious and clean surroundings, and incorporates restaurant-style dining and wellness programs for its residents. In recent years, the facility has been recognized for its innovative use of technology to enhance resident safety and engagement.

LIVIA Health & Senior Living provides access to a broad range of care and medical support options. Onsite amenities include a barber/beauty salon, promoting grooming and personal care, and regularly scheduled yoga and chair yoga classes that contribute to residents’ physical activity and relaxation. The medical support services available cover diabetes care, incontinence care, ambulatory care, and medication management. The community is also equipped to offer memory care in a secured environment, ensuring the safety and structured support of residents with cognitive challenges. For vision and foot health, visiting optometrists and podiatrists provide services as needed.

Assistance is available with daily activities such as bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting for those requiring physical help. LIVIA’s physical setting features both indoor and outdoor walking paths, allowing residents safe options for recreation and exercise regardless of weather. Social opportunities are provided through clubs and community groups designed to foster a sense of engagement and belonging.

Resident and family feedback indicates that the facility’s environment is modern and well-maintained, and therapy (physical and occupational) services are generally well regarded for professionalism. Some administrative staff, such as those in social work, receive positive mentions. However, reviews also highlight concerns with chronic understaffing, long wait times for assistance, and inconsistent responsiveness, particularly during nighttime hours or in the absence of family advocates. There are mixed reports regarding communication: some families appreciate regular updates, while others experience difficulty in reaching key staff or obtaining follow-up. Suggestions from families include improved monitoring (potentially through cameras), increased amenities like a shop or ATM, better coordination with families, and enhancements in staff training and compassion. While LIVIA’s facilities, therapy, and amenities receive positive observations, many reviews underscore that the quality and attentiveness of daily care and staff engagement are areas needing continued attention.
