Overview of The Ivy at Wellington

Facebook

Operated by Well Oak Tenant LLC and Oakmont Management Group LLC, The Ivy at Wellington is a residential care community in Laguna Woods, California, that provides personal care and memory care for adults aged 62 and older. This three-story community, administered by Gerry Vadnais, has been open for three years.

With a 305-bed capacity, it is among the larger senior living communities in the area. Studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments are also offered, as well as private and companion suites within the memory care neighborhood. The pet-friendly community also features all-day dining, wellness programs, and engagement activities to support daily routines. Shared amenities include a library, media room, fitness center, activity studio, full-service salon, heated pool, and spa. Moreover, outdoor spaces include a courtyard and walking paths.

Transportation services also help residents attend appointments. Located in a slightly walkable area, the community requires transportation for most errands.

Reviews conducted by California’s Department of Social Services have identified areas of concern related to medication administration practices and transportation safety during complaint investigations. Moreover, a more recent inspection closed a complaint related to a concern outside the community’s licensed scope and concluded without findings.
