The design of Arbor Terrace Fairfax is the result of 30 years of experience in the caring for seniors with memory loss. From the open, single-story design and safe outdoor courtyards, to the dementia-friendly furniture and decor, everything is designed with a purpose.

Every apartment at Arbor Terrace is designed with Alzheimer's disease and dementia in mind. This includes things like the wide-open spaces and minimal transition flooring that reduce trip hazards as well as the "glow" light in the bathroom to make late-night trips to the restroom safe.
