When a loved one begins facing the challenges of Alzheimer’s, dementia, or another cognitive condition, families often feel the weight of finding the right place. Raya’s Paradise Memory Care Services in Los Angeles offer an environment where safety, compassion, and dignity come together in a true home setting.
Our residences in West Hollywood, Fairfax, and the surrounding neighborhoods are intentionally small and residential in design. Unlike large, institutional memory care facilities, each of our homes welcomes only six residents, creating a warm and intimate environment where personalized attention is part of everyday life. Families often describe our communities as feeling more like boutique retreats than care facilities.
At Raya’s Paradise, our mission is clear: help every resident live with dignity, independence, and joy while giving families peace of mind.
We also offer memory care at our luxury Orange County community.
“I highly recommend Raya’s. My mom has lived there for almost 6 years. As an older adult with a chronic illness, we struggled to care for mom at home and were relieved to find Raya’s. Raya’s offers the amenities of a larger facility (activities, field trips, nursing staff, a full kitchen and menu) coupled with the warmth and personal attention of a smaller home. The team has been responsive to our needs, and gone above and beyond to keep mom safe and comfortable.”
Personalized Care Consultation
Every journey with Alzheimer’s or dementia is unique. That’s why our team takes the time to listen, learn, and create a care plan that truly fits your family. Whether your loved one is in the early stages of memory loss or requires full support, we’re here to guide you through the next step with compassion and clarity.
What Memory Care Means at Raya’s Paradise
Memory care is more than assisted living. It is specialized senior housing designed for individuals living with Alzheimer’s, dementia, or other cognitive conditions. Care goes beyond help with daily tasks. It prioritizes safety, cognitive engagement, and emotional well-being.
At our Los Angeles residences, every detail supports this philosophy. Caregivers are trained in dementia communication and redirection techniques, and staff-to-resident ratios remain low to ensure each person is known as an individual. Homes are secured without feeling restrictive, with intuitive layouts and calming décor to minimize stress. Families are part of the process too; care planning always incorporates personal histories, preferences, and goals.
Each of our six residences offers memory care in a home-like setting across West Hollywood and the greater Los Angeles area:

Keeping minds and bodies engaged is essential in memory care. Our daily programs include everything from chair yoga and balance classes to painting, gardening, and music therapy. Seasonal events and cultural celebrations bring the community together, while quiet moments – such as reading groups or movie nights – offer space for relaxation.
Families often tell us their greatest concern is safety. Our Los Angeles residences are designed to allow freedom within a secure environment. Secured entries, enclosed gardens, and discreet monitoring systems protect residents without restricting their independence. Emergency call systems and wellness checks provide additional layers of reassurance.
Raya’s Paradise is deeply connected to the Los Angeles community. Our central locations make it easy for families in Beverly Hills, Fairfax, and West Hollywood to stay involved. Outings to cultural landmarks, local parks, or neighborhood cafés add vibrancy to daily life. Los Angeles’ sunshine and cultural richness provide the perfect backdrop for safe and meaningful engagement.
Choosing a memory care community in Los Angeles requires trust, and our reputation has been built on creating a home where residents feel safe and loved. Families, case managers, and even healthcare providers consistently point to three things that set us apart:
Personalized attention. Each residence is licensed for only six residents. This intimate scale ensures caregivers can build real relationships, understand each individual’s needs, and adapt care as memory loss progresses.
Expertise in dementia care. Our caregivers are trained to support every stage of memory loss.
A culture of engagement. From music therapy to art workshops, gardening, and fitness classes, our activities stimulate memory while fostering joy. Residents are encouraged to celebrate holidays, participate in group events, and enjoy the California sunshine in secured courtyards.
Safety and peace of mind. Our homes are secured with monitored entries, enclosed outdoor gardens, and wellness checks. Residents can explore freely while families know their loved ones are protected.

Families and those we work with often tell the story better than we can.

“There is no better place for your loved ones with dementia than Raya’s Paradise. My mother is one of the more challenging patients, who has fits of anger and aggression. The previous memory care facility didn’t know what to do, and ended up sending her to the hospital. Raya’s Paradise worked hard in getting to know my mother, finding out what her triggers were, and minimizing them as much as possible. They are very easy to work with, affordable, and devoted to the patient. The facility is top-notch, the food is amazing, and they cost less than those big fancy memory care facilities. Raya’s Paradise also literally saved my mother’s life. She was woken for her evening meds, and had a very low pulse. 911 was called and she was rushed to the hospital. She was having a major heart block and was minutes from death. My mom can’t go back to Raya’s, unfortunately, but we really regret she can’t spend more time there. To top it off, Raya’s let us check her out and didn’t insist on a 30 day notice like other places. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you, Raya’s Paradise, and especially thank you for saving my mother’s life.”

“My mother needed more care than her facility could offer over 8 1/2 years ago coming out of the hospital. Michael Gamburd was the first to return my call. Once I visited the home, there was no doubt. He picked up her clothes and made my job so much easier. Now 8 1/2 years later she is still there. She improved immediately after receiving the care and family like atmosphere. The staff has been so wonderful! There really is no better place for your loved ones. She is very comfortable and enjoys the activities. at the age of 92.“

“As a case manager with 26 years of experience in Los Angeles, I’ve worked with countless facilities — but none have consistently impressed me the way Rayas Paradise has. I’ve had many clients placed at their various homes over the years, and I can say with complete confidence that they are the best small care facilities I’ve ever encountered.
What truly sets Rayas Paradise apart is their unwavering commitment to quality care in a warm, home-like environment. Each location is beautifully maintained, thoughtfully staffed, and genuinely focused on the well-being and dignity of every resident. My clients have not only received excellent care, but have also felt safe, respected, and at home — something that’s unfortunately rare in many facilities across the city.
Their communication with case managers is reliable, responsive, and professional — a huge relief when coordinating services or advocating for clients. I always feel confident referring to Rayas Paradise, knowing my clients will be treated with compassion and respect.
In a city as large as LA, it’s easy to feel like just another number. Rayas Paradise manages to create something special — a sense of personalized care and community that’s truly unmatched. I’m incredibly grateful for the work they do and can’t recommend them highly enough.”

“Raya’s Paradise feels like a boutique hotel in West Hollywood! I’ve visited several times to see an old friend, and each time, I’m impressed by how clean and welcoming the environment is. The food is delicious, and the caregivers are friendly and attentive, always engaging with the residents. I even joined in on a few activity days, which were lively and a lot of fun. Finding the right place for a loved one can be challenging, but the staff at Raya’s make everyone feel at home. Highly recommended!”

These comments mirror what we aim for every day, safety, connection and a sense of home.
No two people experience dementia the same way. Our person-centered approach ensures each resident’s care plan is unique, built in collaboration with families and healthcare providers.
Residents in early stages may benefit from gentle reminders and structured routines, while those in later stages receive full support with daily living. Throughout every stage, therapeutic engagement remains central; from reminiscence programs and sensory activities to calming music sessions. Environments are designed to reduce confusion, using natural light, open layouts, and soothing colors.
“My mother was a resident here for 3 years as she declined with dementia and ultimately passed away. I cannot say enough good things about the Raya’s Paradise staff and facilities. The direct care givers are smart, kind and attentive, taking the time to figure out what works best for each resident. My mother could be challenging (!) but staff learned how to work with her and bring out the very best in her. She had very happy years here. Night and day from the previous facility we had her in.
With 3:1 resident to staff ratio, fantastic onsite chef with staff, nurse on site, dedicated driver for offsite needs, activities coordinator bringing daily fun, and so much more–Raya’s really delivers exceptional care. From maintenance crew to chef to Executive Director, everyone at Raya’s works from their heart to care for the residents.
If you have choice, this is where you want your loved one. I not only will miss my mother, I will miss staff and being at the Sierra Bonita location of Raya’s Paradise.”
