  • Sierra Vista Retirement Community Description

    Established in 1999 and remodeled in 2006, Sierra Vista is a unique 24-bed, fully licensed assisted-living residence in Santa Fe, New Mexico, that specializes in caring for people with Alzheimer’s and dementia. We are intentional in what we do. Our home was created solely for this special population. We are rich in culture, traditional in values, and nontraditional in our approach to Alzheimer’s, dementia and memory care. We are situated on a rustic campus, just minutes from the historic Santa Fe Plaza. Sierra Vista is cutting edge, cozy with southwest motifs, and designed to meet the needs of elders, giving them a sense of freedom, with the comfort of home.
