Please join us bi-weekly for an interactive group discussion designed to help you understand and deal with both sides of caregiving: providing it and receiving it. We want you to feel comfortable and safe sharing whatever is on your mind.

Caregiving crosses all illnesses, conditions and health concerns. Providing care for loved ones often leads to feeling intimidated, confused, frustrated and exhausted. Sharing this burden can relieve this stress and hearing from others that are going through similar journeys can provide you with solutions as well.

For questions, please email Loida Arriaga, Community Relations Associate, larriaga@kensingtonsl.com.

In 2022, The Kensington Sierra Madre became the first Positive Approach to Care® (PAC) designated senior living community in California, and now we want to share our expertise with YOU!

It uses our talents and abilities to develop awareness, knowledge, and skill with all people, to transform what exists into a more positive dementia care culture.

Marjorie Villarosa, Director of Assisted Living, has worked in senior living for over 15 years. Her love for helping aging adults began during childhood, when her grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. She learned firsthand what it was like to care for a loved one living with dementia. She shares, “I have been passionate about caring for seniors because of their wisdom, resilience, and gratitude for the things we may miss in our everyday busy lives.”

Marina Lopez, Care Partner, has worked in senior living for nearly eight years. For Marina, caring for aging adults is a deeply personal calling. She believes strongly in showing the utmost respect and gratitude towards our residents and feels honored to be a part of their lives. “When I walked into The Kensington, it felt like a family environment. And has been this way ever since I started working here.”
