A Wonderful Active Lifestyle

At Emeritus at La Casa Grande we offer social, physical, mental, spiritual and creative activities to choose from. Our residents can choose between large group socialization with our Bingo or live entertainment and happy hour, or smaller activities like a game of bowling on the Wii among friends. We encourage residents to maintain independence by offering weekly transportation for shopping, banking, and pharmacy errands. We also encourage socialization with monthly "lunch bunch" trips to local restaurants as well as outdoor excursions, such as picnics at the beach.

Partnering with the Local Neighborhood Community

Emeritus at La Casa Grande hosts monthly Alzheimer's Association Family Support Group. In addition, Emeritus at La Casa Grande hosts educational seminars that benefit our greater community. We are active fundraisers for the Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk. We also participate in many charity events that benefit local children and elderly organizations.

Fine Dining

At Emeritus at La Casa Grande we offer three homemade meals served each day. Each meal offers a choice of salad or fruit to start, and we offer two entree choices for each meal along with desert. We also have an alternate menu that is always available. Meals are served on china in a restaurant-style atmosphere so that residents can enjoy conversation with the company at their table while enjoying a satisfying nutritious meal.
