Solana Beach, CA–La Vida Del Mar, an active retirement community owned and operated by Senior Resource Group (SRG), announced it has been re-accredited by CARF International. 

The latest accreditation is the fourth consecutive three-year accreditation awarded to La Vida Del Mar.

Similar to the five-star rating of the hospitality industry, this certification is the highest level of accreditation that can be awarded to a retirement community.

“We are elated and profoundly proud of the renewal of our CARF accreditation. This esteemed acknowledgment stands as a tribute to our steadfast devotion to delivering top-tier care and services to our residents, and to our team’s unwavering adherence to CARF’s benchmarks of excellence,” said Executive Director Laura West.

To receive the three-year re-accreditation outcome, La Vida Del Mar completed a voluntary peer review process and demonstrated to a team of surveyors that its programs and services are of the highest quality, measurable, and accountable. The survey team’s report highlighted La Vida Del Mar’s many strengths, including a person-centered approach to care and service that honors and respects residents; a robust Zest programming appealing to residents’ minds, bodies, and souls; long-tenured staff who have genuine and warm relationships with residents; and a culinary team that exhibits a deep sense of pride in the preparation, taste, and presentation of food, positively impacting residents’ quality of life.

“The CARF report praised the physical environment, including our appealing, warm, and inviting interiors and outdoor spaces with lush greenery and gardens – all of which make our community special,” added West. “However, we’re most proud of our resident and family feedback. Residents felt safe and family members reported a ‘deep sense of comfort and confidence at the level of care and services provided to their family members.’  This is what defines us at La Vida Del Mar.”

La Vida Del Mar is a senior living community that offers both independent and assisted-living lifestyles. Available on a monthly fee basis, the community has a full range of services and amenities, including 12-hour restaurant dining, transportation, housekeeping, activities, and personalized, holistic health and wellness programs for residents.
