Overview of Avista Senior Living Albuquerque

Facebook Instagram LinkedIn

Avista Senior Living Albuquerque provides assisted living and memory care in Albuquerque, NM. Assisted living gives residents help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing and medication while they live in their own suite, while memory care provides a secured setting and supervision for residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias. The community may be a good fit for someone who needs dementia care in a supervised setting, including a resident whose family caregiver needs a short stay for respite.

Avista Senior Living Albuquerque has 54 beds and offers private suites and companion suites. A private suite provides one resident with a private living space, while a companion suite can suit two people moving together or someone who wants a roommate. Respite care allows a resident to stay for a limited time while a usual caregiver travels or recovers.

Residents can use a secure outdoor courtyard with walking paths and benches, take part in supervised exercise, and dine in a restaurant style setting. A hair salon and transportation service are also available for personal care and travel beyond the community. The community is in the Eldorado Heights neighborhood, and a Walk Score of 56 places the area in the somewhat walkable range, meaning some errands can be completed on foot for a resident who no longer drives. Avista Abq operates the community.
