Full Life Selections

A matter of choices

Imagine a perfect day ... your perfect day. What might it be made of? Time with friends and family? A refreshing swim or relaxing stroll? Perhaps it would be having the time, at last, for your favorite hobby ... or to discover a new, compelling interest; sharing a delicious meal in good company; or looking forward to a get-together with good friends.

Really, there's no one answer ... because, a perfect day means something different to everyone. It all comes down to having choices ... the choices you need to shape the retirement lifestyle you desire and deserve: and that's what La Vida Llena is all about.

It all begins with the many choices available for your personal space: beautiful, spacious apartment homes or unique casitas, in a wide range of sizes and styles ... over 17 floor plans in all. There's sure to be a design that satisfies your personal taste and style - and each one includes features like well-equipped kitchens, carpeting, window treatments, individual climate controls and more. And, your sensible side will be glad to know that all utilities, except your personal phone and cable television, are included.

The privacy, convenience and comfort of your new home is perfectly complemented by the many resources of a well-planned, caring community - with virtually everything included for just one purpose: to help you make your retirement just as rewarding as it can be.

More services and amenities mean more time for you - and more ways to make the most of every moment

Free from the daily demands of home upkeep - with thoughtful services to ease the burden of everyday chores, and give you more time to fully enjoy all our outstanding amenities and engaging activities - you'll discover what we mean by a "life in full" ... a lifestyle that's more complete and completely rewarding.

Consider the following amenities and advantages - all included in your monthly fee, to enjoy as you choose:

Of course, all this is in addition to what may be the most important advantage of all - the certain assurance of quality health care - that you can only enjoy at Albuquerque's only LifeCare community.

Complete health care services - on-site - for real peace-of-mind

Other kinds of retirement communities may offer only one kind of care - like assisted living; limited access to services that are somewhere else; or, no kind of care at all.

Not at La Vida Llena! Our residents have the peace-of-mind of knowing that a wide range of health care services - from in-home services to short-term or long-term nursing care, dementia and Alzheimer's care, and even rehabilitation services - are readily available, right here: secured by a one-time entrance fee and simple monthly fee.

It means that a change in your health won't mean a change in your finances or a change in address. In today's uncertain health care market, that's a certainty that makes a difference ... a commitment you can count on, that we've been keeping since 1982.

In the beginning, La Vida Llena was founded by four area churches, that joined together to offer seniors a more secure, fulfilling way of life. Today, as a non-profit. non-denominational community, we're keeping faith with their founding vision ... and renewing a tradition of service, every day.

Why even take a chance of becoming a burden on your friends and family or letting circumstance or someone else make your decisions for you, when you can make a choice; a choice that makes so many other choices possible, today and tomorrow. LifeCare at La Vida Llena offers a real solution ... tested by time, and proven in practice.
