The Leisure Care Difference
Today's older adults aren't wrapping up their life's journey, they're seeking a new one. And Leisure Care is here to inspire them to embrace joy and purpose in their lives. For nearly 50 years, we've been reimagining and reinventing senior living, making sure older adults have the most fulfilling, rewarding, and productive opportunities possible.
From our hospitality-based care to our signature programming, we take a beyond-the-body approach to well-being that goes beyond the basics because we know you're anything but. We're paying attention, providing new and innovative ways to help seniors rediscover, reinvigorate and occasionally even reinvent themselves.
Opal is our signature approach to memory care that takes a beyond-the-body approach to care to meet physical, mental, emotional, social, and communal needs. Opal residents participate in a gentle and flexible schedule that creates an environment where all seniors feel included, known, and celebrated. We know any diagnosis with memory loss can be difficult and overwhelming, which is why we also serve as a partner to residents and their families throughout their care.

It was a fun time and I participated in a 71st anniversary celebration! I would definitely come again, if invited." - Janice M.
