Dear Optima Residents, Employees, and Stakeholders,

Every day, new steps are being taken towards our health and safety. We work hard to stay abreast of these changes and to keep you informed. We are encouraged to see COVID-positive case numbers going down, but we must continue to maintain precautions like adhering to physical distancing, hand hygiene, and wearing masks.

March is an exciting month for Optima Living: Aster Gardens will be opening on March 21st! We can't wait to welcome the first residents home.

Stay Safe. Be Well. Take Care.


Thank you.
