New Senior Living Concept Aroha to Bring Memory Care to 55-Plus Setting
Another such company is MD Senior Wellness, which is in the process of opening its first community in California.
Owner Dr. Rajesh Kalra said he is looking at more specialized training and care for his staff so they are ready to meet the needs of seniors coming into the memory care community.
“Our plan is to help seniors at all stages of memory impairment in a safe, compassionate and caring environment,” Kalra said. “We believe that it is important to have a diverse group of seniors with different levels of memory impairment, so residents can learn from one another, help one another and hold each other accountable … creating a small community of memory impaired seniors that help each other thrive.”
Dr. Raj Kalra is a board-certified physician with over 15 years of clinical experience in physical medicine and rehabilitation, pain management, lifestyle medicine, and obesity medicine. As the founder and president of Aroha Memory Care, a lifestyle medicine and wellness-based memory care home set to open in Santa Rosa in 2025, Dr. Kalra is dedicated to fostering a nurturing environment that empowers seniors to thrive in health and well-being.
