FAQ's
The Sterling Aventura is a luxury apartment community with 24-hour
staffing and a worry-free lifestyle designed to provide seniors
with as much care, or as much independence, as they desire. And
because The Sterling is family owned and operated, daily operations
receive closer scrutiny than assisted living communities owned by
out-of-town corporations. We know this close supervision and attention
to detail results in better service for our residents.
Comfort, peace of mind, and above all, the safety and convenience
of our residents are our priorities. Putting the residents’
needs first shapes all we do from the services and conveniences
we offer, to our open dining policy, and taking extra care in the
planning of activities to keep our residents active and engaged
while providing peace of mind and personal dignity.
