The Covington, found in Aliso Viejo, sits in a peaceful Shea Homes planned neighborhood with lots of sunshine and ocean breezes, and covers twelve green acres with secure, gated grounds. The community stays open every day from 9 in the morning to 5 in the evening, and the friendly staff make residents feel welcome. The place offers a variety of living options for adults aged 62 and older, including Independent Living Cottages, Independent Living Units, Assisted Living units, and a Skilled Nursing Facility, all licensed and supported by The Episcopal Home Communities, a non-profit group. There's a real sense of security here, with a gated entry and a wireless Emergency Call system that uses pendants, intercoms, emergency buttons, and motion detectors, and staff are always around if help is needed. The Covington focuses on a full continuum of care, so residents can get Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing, along with daily assistance, medication help, and injury recovery support if that's ever needed.
Meals here are prepared by chefs and meal planners who focus on nutritious, good-tasting food, and there are several dining spots to choose from. Residents can take part in lots of activities, including devotional gatherings, both onsite and offsite social events, and art projects involving painting or sculpture, and there's a Creative Living program that encourages everyone to stay engaged, keep learning, and imagine new experiences. The community has many amenities, like a heated indoor pool, beauty salon, library, TV studio, fitness and wellness centers, art studio with a kiln, putting green, billiards and card room, cocktail lounge, mini-store, ATM, business offices, classroom, and a conference room. Outdoor spaces include a rose garden, a community garden, fountains, and a park, all well-kept and easy to use. Every home or apartment comes with satellite TV, high-speed internet, and access to a secure, two-level underground garage. Residents enjoy privacy and choice, with many floor plans and spacious homes available, plus the comfort of knowing there's 24-hour supervision and a creative team focused on quality of life. The Covington is a Life Plan community, which means people have peace of mind about future care, and there's a 90% re-occupancy benefit with the entrance fee for Independent Living. The grounds, amenities, and restrooms are kept clean and safe, and the community works with nearby medical providers, including pharmacy access through Walgreens and medical care at places like Laguna Niguel Family Medical. The Covington sits among other senior communities but stands out for its focus on creative living, quality care, and a comfortable, active setting with caring staff and a choice of living and service options for all needs.
