Pasadena Highlands is a senior living community in northeast Pasadena, managed by WellQuest Living. The residence is designed for older adults with varying levels of independence — from active, self-sufficient lifestyles to daily assistance and specialized memory care. The core idea is simple: residents maintain their independence while the staff handles safety, comfort, and everyday tasks.

Where Is Pasadena Highlands Located?

The community is situated on East Washington Blvd — a quiet, tree-lined street with quick access to major Pasadena landmarks, shops, and medical centers.
Nearby parks, pharmacies, cafés, and transit stops make daily life convenient for residents and their families.

The layout encourages outdoor time and connection. Residents can:

  • relax in lounge areas and landscaped courtyards,
  • meet friends or welcome visitors,
  • join group programs or creative workshops.

This kind of environment helps residents stay engaged, active, and connected.

What Living Options Are Available?

Pasadena Highlands offers three types of care to meet different needs:

  • Independent Living – for active individuals who want freedom from household chores.
  • Assisted Living – for those who benefit from daily assistance such as bathing, dressing, or medication reminders.
  • Memory Care – for residents who need a secure and structured setting due to cognitive conditions.

Apartments range from studios to one- and two-bedroom units. Each space is designed for comfort and accessibility with:

  • step-free entrances,
  • easy-access bathrooms,
  • emergency call systems,
  • ergonomic storage and kitchen areas.

The result is a private, safe, and adaptable home where residents can feel both independent and supported.

How Is Medical Support Provided?

Residents can receive care right in their apartments, avoiding unnecessary travel to clinics or urgent care centers. Medical visits may include:

  • wellness exams,

  • flexible routines,
  • respect for privacy and independence.

This philosophy helps residents maintain motivation, dignity, and emotional balance while receiving the right level of help at the right time.
