The Terraces at Park Marino
Located on E. Washington Blvd. in the heart of Pasadena, The Terraces at Park Marino provides a distinctive blend of compassionate care, modern amenities, and clinical support for aging adults. Designed for those seeking a balance between independence and assistance, this senior living community fosters dignity, comfort, and personalized healthcare in a warm, residential environment.
Personalized In-Room Medical Care
The Terraces at Park Marino offers more than traditional senior living by providing residents with access to in-room medical visits. This means that instead of navigating stressful urgent care centers or hospitals, residents can invite licensed medical professionals directly into their suites. This includes the ability to request visits from general practitioners, and—when needed—specialists such as ophthalmologists for routine eye exams or condition-specific care.
To further reduce health-related disruptions, residents may schedule multiple providers to visit during the same appointment window. Services can include X-ray technicians, lab diagnostics, and ultrasound assessments, all coordinated within the safety and privacy of the resident’s room.
Sophisticated Living with Supportive Services
Residents of The Terraces at Park Marino enjoy thoughtfully designed apartments within a community that blends comfort and security. The campus is landscaped with serene walking paths and open-air spaces to encourage movement and connection with nature. Daily wellness checks, medication assistance, and personal care services ensure that residents receive comprehensive support while retaining autonomy.
Chef-inspired dining, scheduled social events, creative workshops, and fitness classes contribute to the vibrant lifestyle. With 24/7 staff on site, families have peace of mind knowing that loved ones are safe and supported at all times.
Clinical Integration and Proactive Wellness
The health philosophy of The Terraces emphasizes proactive wellness. On-site staff coordinate with off-site specialists to ensure residents benefit from consistent medical oversight. Preventative screenings, regular vitals monitoring, and chronic condition management are integral to care routines.
Family members are invited to be active participants in care planning, and technology is used to keep them informed about health updates. Lab results, X-ray imaging, and other diagnostics are delivered quickly and interpreted collaboratively to create effective treatment plans.
Expert Medical Insight
Mobile Imaging and Annual Eye Exams
Mobile diagnostic technologies have become essential in senior care. At The Terraces, X-ray and ultrasound devices can be brought to the resident’s room, making imaging safer and more comfortable for those with mobility limitations.
Additionally, annual eye exams conducted by mobile ophthalmologists are strongly recommended for seniors. Early detection of cataracts, glaucoma, or retinal conditions can preserve vision and independence. These services—fully available on-site—support both immediate and long-term health outcomes.
