"In the design of facilities for senior adults, light-filled spaces are essential for the physiological and psychological well being of residents as well as staff."



Cedars Nursing Care Center's rich color and texture of exterior materials confers a home-like quality, while the sparkling atrium lobby, infused with natural daylight, heralds its welcoming entry. Cedars, a state-of-the-art 99-bed Long Term Care Facility, was featured in the Designs For Aging 1992 Review, the first national review and exhibition of significant architectural design trends for the aging, co-sponsored by the American Institute of Architects and the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging.
