When families in Redwood City and throughout the Bay Area are seeking a trusted, compassionate home for a loved one living with dementia, they consistently turn to Kensington Place. But what exactly makes our community so uniquely suited to meet the needs of individuals with Alzheimer’s and other forms of memory loss?
We Specialize in Memory Care
At Kensington Place Redwood City, we are not a general senior living facility. We are a dedicated memory care community with two thoughtfully designed neighborhoods:
- Connections for early to mid-stage memory loss
- Haven for more advanced stages of dementia
This focused environment means every decision—from team training to building design—is optimized for the comfort, dignity, and safety of individuals living with cognitive decline.
A Clinically Excellent, Compassionate Approach
We are proud to follow the Positive Approach to Care method, as it aligns with our mission and offers a person-centered approach that affirms our commitment to relationship-based, person-centered care. Our care model includes:
- 24/7 on-site licensed nurses
- Expertise in complex care needs
- Medication management and health monitoring
- Seamless aging in place—no disruptive moves required
This means families can count on us not just for today, but for the full journey ahead.
Enriching Daily Life for Every Resident
Life at Kensington Place is full of purpose and joy. Our Life Enrichment program features activities 7 days a week, tailored to each resident’s needs and abilities. Popular programs include:
- Music and art therapy
- Reminiscence and storytelling sessions
- Adaptive exercise and guided meditation
- Family-style events and intergenerational programming
We believe that every resident—regardless of cognitive level—deserves moments of joy, creativity, and connection.
Dining With Dignity
Nutrition plays a vital role in cognitive and physical wellness. Our Dining program emphasizes:
- Small-group dining settings
- Chef-prepared meals that accommodate special diets
- Visual cues and adaptive utensils to foster independence
- Personalized assistance with a warm, respectful approach
We invite visiting families to share a meal with their loved ones and experience our commitment to culinary mastery and family.

Our Suites & Floor Plans offer more than beautiful aesthetics—they’re designed to enhance safety and reduce confusion:
- Intuitive room layouts

- Secured outdoor garden courtyards
- Smells of home such as freshly baked bread
These features help residents navigate more confidently while preserving a sense of home.
