Description

Atherton, a respected Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) or Life Plan Community in Alhambra, CA, has for over 110 years been an admired option for men and women who are committed to living lives of faith and friendship with the security of onsite health care, always at hand. Some of the best care in the entire San Gabriel Valley in independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing facility, rehabilitation and dementia care is found at Atherton. 

Quality care—and quality day to day living within the community—is not so much an option as it is, simply, a way of life. For more than 110 years, Atherton has been a bright spot on the horizon for those seeking a retirement community unsurpassed in beauty and style, kinship and compassion, and a commitment to faith-based living.

Inside our 15-acre and charming tree-lined village, residents can find a community of new friends and neighbors who share the same core values, as well as a skilled and caring community of professionals who are able to provide all levels of care, support and rehabilitation.

What is truly inspiring about the Atherton retirement experience is the way in which residents can choose the living options that are right for them and share in as many or as few activities as they wish. Housing selections include apartments, cottages, duplexes, triplexes and stand-alone homes. Dining and housekeeping packages are flexible and optional, as well.

Seniors devoted to faith-based living in their retirement years—no matter what their faith may be—will always have a home at Atherton.
