Welcome to Cadence at Poway Gardens—an intentional community, offering assisted living and memory care within a continuum of options. Located in Poway, California, our beautiful 32-acre campus is graced by nature and our commitment to resident interaction with our surroundings. Cadence at Poway Gardens is unique. We celebrate our uniqueness in that residents enjoy our, greenhouse, organic farmland and fruit orchards in which they can participate in horticultural activities that stimulate their mind, body and soul. Residents can choose from our, five garden villas in addition to our main buildings. Here, residents feel connected and will experience a vibrant rhythm of life that is often missing from other assisted living and memory care settings.
With the help of capable and willing residents and staff, Cadence at Poway Gardens’ horticultural-therapy program grows more than 20,000 pounds of organic fruits and vegetables every year. And what doesn’t end up in our own kitchens is donated to needy families and seniors in the area. Growing food exercises the body and mind, while nurturing deeper connection with nature, people and purpose.
Cadence at Poway Garden’s assisted living and memory care services are delivered by experienced caregivers who excel in creating personal connections and genuine warmth. Our culture is founded on the principles of kindness, respect and personal accountability to ensure the highest quality of care for our residents and peace of mind for their family members.
At Cadence Living, we are experts at creating beautifully orchestrated experiences by connecting the right people, places, programs and process. Our highly respected team of professionals takes a holistic approach to health and wellness with supportive services that enrich, encourage and enhance life.
Cadence at Poway Gardens’ programming helps people living with cognitive impairment make meaningful connections through nature, horticulture, music, dance, art, food, storytelling, movement and sensory stimulation. Our highly engaged team uses relationship-based care to provide assistance centered on each resident’s unique needs at each and every stage.
We believe that staying true to wellness goals is easier when you are a part of an encouraging community that embraces healthy living. Exercise types are based on resident interest, such as gentle yoga, chair yoga, dance, balance, tai chi, and strength training. We’re also big believers in using the brain’s natural neuroplasticity to enhance the quality of life. By choosing to stay physically active and mentally engaged, eat right and develop meaningful connections and experiences, we can improve our body, mind and mood.
Because we know good health starts with healthy food, Cadence recipes are crafted with fresh ingredients with locally grown fruits and vegetables. Menus are influenced by resident preferences and their personal feedback to the ENCORE dining team. But most importantly, ENCORE can accommodate most special dietary needs, including food allergies and sensitivities. Just let us know, and we’ll work together to create suitable alternatives for you.
Studies show that physical activity, mental stimulation and social connection can significantly slow mental decline as we age. This is why SESSIONS Life Enrichment Program supports the totality of life with an engaging activities calendar designed to elevate the happiness and wellbeing of our residents. SESSIONS activities include plenty of special celebrations, sing-alongs, community engagement and intergenerational exchanges with the local schools and youth programs, including our Intergenerational Garden Club where children and elders plant, tend and harvest together.
