About Us
About Cedar & Stone
At Cedar & Stone Senior Care and Residences, we’ve reimagined the 6-bed residential care model. We specialize in supporting seniors from independent residents to individuals with complex needs such as Alzheimer’s and Dementia through a lifestyle rooted in assisted independence, purposeful activity, and genuine joy.
The Cedar & Stone Advantage
Boutique Environment: Our 6-bed home in Concord offers a smooth, comfortable, and home-like transition that large institutions simply cannot match.
Tech-Forward Care: We integrate modern digital health tools to monitor wellness, enhance cognitive engagement, and keep families connected to their loved ones in real-time.
Active Engagement: From creative arts to physical movement, our daily activities are designed to reduce isolation and slow the cognitive decline associated with dementia.
Our Mission: To provide a loving environment where highly trained caregivers understand that "extra care" should never mean a loss of dignity or excitement.
Ikigai Way: We believe every resident deserves an Ikigai—a reason to get up in the morning. Our program is designed to nourish the social, emotional, and spiritual needs of our residents, ensuring that this new chapter of life is adventuresome rather than restrictive.

Our Story
Our journey began with a simple, shared desire: to fundamentally better the lives of our seniors. We realized that traditional care often lacked the modern vision needed to truly help residents thrive.
Driven by a common goal to redefine the assisted living experience, we combined our expertise in healthcare technology and senior care to create something different. At Cedar & Stone, we’ve built a home where innovation meets heart. We are dedicated to providing a premier residence that utilizes modern tools to ensure the highest standard of wellness and a purposeful, joyful life for every senior we serve.
