Assisted Living at Ciela Pacific Palisades

Needing extra help shouldn’t mean giving up your freedom. The transition to living with assistance shouldn’t feel like you can’t be you anymore, that you can’t keep discovering, stay healthy, or stay in tune with your social circle.

How to get started

We'll make a plan that’s made for you. New Ciela residents are paired with a Move-in Curator to create a wellness plan designed to meet their lifestyle and health goals. Here’s how it works:

We connect with your family, doctors & other providers

We’ll learn about your health history and more.

Complete a wellness & lifestyle assessment

Each resident shares things they love, don’t love and lifestyle goals. Every care plan also comes with a physical therapy evaluation.

We assemble your care team

Our Wellness Director will oversee every Ciela plan and your care concierge will be there to quarterback every step of the way.

Review the plan

We then share a plan that focuses on each resident’s strengths and provides support in the areas they need most.

Love folding your own laundry? Great! We’ll have housekeeping skip that step. Hate vacuuming? We’ll get that done while you’re out on your morning walk.

Move in & meet someone new

We’ll coordinate with you to get you settled in your new home while you take in the views of the Santa Monica Mountain with a new friend.

Oura Senior Living

Better Care Through Better Technology

While no device can ever replace the insights gleaned from personal and careful observation, we believe in harnessing the power of technology and precise monitoring to augment the art of caring. Better data yields more informed decisions, which ultimately leads to better outcomes.  With that in mind, we’ve partnered with CarePredict, an AI-driven platform that captures any and all types of movement and Oura to track sleep and vitals.

Fall reduction

From taking a leisurely walk and doing housework to getting dressed and playing cards (and everything in between), CarePredict provides a holistic view of activity levels and compares them to established baselines. When there’s a deviation from normal activity patterns, the system provides alerts for potential concerns like depression and falls.
Oura Ring for seniors

Sleep, nutrition and activity tracking

Our collaboration with Oura provides our caregivers with invaluable data about our members’ vitals 24/7 with an emphasis on sleep, and how they may be prepared for each exciting day ahead. The Oura Teams platform alerts our staff to any changes in sleep quantity, quality, cardiac activity, body temperature, and other important metrics.

Faster service from caregivers
