The ZEST Activities Team at The Village at Sherman Oaks, led by Molly Middleton Meyer, creates a vibrant, engaging environment for the all the residents - residents who are some of the most brilliant, thoughtful, creative people I've ever met. Molly and her team bring out the best in each of these amazing people every single day. My father moved here from Knoxville, Tennessee, in June and he absolutely loves and looks forward to participating in the many interesting offerings, especially the live concerts, poetry classes, and, of course, BINGO! What truly sets this community apart is how Molly and her ZEST team bring warmth and personal attention to every resident and each activity. They've created a wonderful balance of intellectual stimulation, creative expression, and pure fun that keeps the residents active and connected. With the support of Molly and her team, my dad has even started a Discussion Group, which has been a wonderful way for him to connect with other amazing, active people who share similar experiences. Molly's background in poetry and creative writing really shines through in the programming, and her genuine care for each resident is evident in everything she does. It's incredible to see how she manages to give individualized attention to everyone while maintaining such a full calendar of engaging activities. I have been singing their praises since June. If you're looking for a senior living community that truly understands the importance of staying active, creative, and socially connected, the ZEST Activities Team at The Village at Sherman Oaks is outstanding. They're not just planning activities - they're creating a feeling of family by sharing meaningful experiences that enhance residents' lives every day.

My parents moved here about three months ago and we have been thrilled with the community. The staff is the most loving, caring and nurturing we've ever come across and they all go the extra mile to make sure the residents are happy and thriving in all ways. The activities are creative, fun and intellectually and physically stimulating. The apartments are beautiful as are the common areas, all designed with safety and comfort in mind. The dining room is a delight, run by the loveliest people who look out for everyone. The food is absolutely delicious and we love that we are welcome to join them for meals. I can't say enough good things about The Village Sherman Oaks. We feel very fortunate to have my parents be part of this wonderful community.

Jana gave us a wonderful tour of the facilities and described all the activities available to residents. We have visited several other senior resident communities in the area and found the Village at Sherman Oaks to be much more alive with residents involved in activities. The hallways and rooms felt new and not worn down. Refreshing!

I was with my sister, Emma, who is the one who is looking for an assisted living facility. I was impressed with the multitude of activities available for your residents. Your facility is amazing. Your room layouts were the best I have seen so far. My sister is still looking at other facilities so she will have a complete picture of what each facility has to offer. Thank you, Shianne (misspelled I am sure), for the tour and your hospitality. My sister and I were both impressed with you. If she ultimately does choose your facility, we will be contacting you as soon as she is financially ready to make the move. Cordially, Helen Allen

We toured the village at Sherman Oaks in September 2023. Philip was an extremely helpful, compassionate, informative host. He answered every question we had, and helped us get a deeper sense of what life would be like at the village for my mom. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the activity list and menus look terrific. I’m hoping my 88-year-old mom will ultimately decide to join this welcoming community.
