A skilled nursing home in Montclair, California, Aqua Ridge of Montclair caters to residents needing post-acute rehabilitation and long-term nursing care. Operated by Alta Vista Health Care Inc and Chendu Holding LLC, the facility is owned by Chestnut Ridge Post Acute and welcomes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, providing families with multiple coverage routes. Administered by Monique Del Junco, the home has 150 beds and has been operating for 4 years, indicating a newer facility centered on delivering modern post-acute care.

The average stay duration is 102 days, signalling a mixed population of patients in rehabilitation recovery and those requiring longer-term care. Clinical support is a main component of daily life.

Situated at 9631 Monte Vista Avenue in Montclair, the community sits in a moderately walkable neighborhood (Walk Score 58), where some errands can be accomplished on foot, with most daily activities requiring a short drive. For visiting family, the area is easy to navigate. Daily care includes 24-hour staffing and a full range of support services: housekeeping, assistance with bathing and dressing, and on-site beauty and barber services. Dining is a focal point of the community, with chef-prepared meals designed around dietician-approved menus and served in an intimate setting. The home also operates Cascade Falls Cafe, a full bistro and coffee bar where residents can drink beverages and light fare at their own pace. This flexibility can be purposeful for residents who want familiar comfort or prefer to dine informally. The community has a full activities calendar and programming to help with rehabilitation goals and daily engagement.
