Experience The Monarch difference.
Programs
The Monarch at Richardson was designed to encourage connection, socialization and movement throughout the community. Inside and out, you’ll find places created for fun, interaction, wellness and learning. Catch a movie or performance in the event center, meet with friends in the courtyard or private dining room, take a fitness or wellness class and join in one of the many holistic signature programs led by our Salus™ and Valeo™ team members.
Our programs for residents, supported by more than 650 hours of scientific development, create a successful culture through engagement, socialization and physical and mental stimulation. And, because residents and team members help to customize these programs, each of our events and activities are continually evolving and unique.

Wellness
This assisted living and memory care community is designed to give you the keys to successful aging by keeping you moving, learning, connected and having fun with our Four Components of Wellness. The Monarch at Richardson’s trademarked wellness philosophy, Salus (Latin for “well-being”), focuses on residents’ whole lives — from the physical and intellectual to the social and spiritual. This approach to wellness also extends to our Valeo (Latin for “to thrive”) memory care programming, which honors residents by always treating them with dignity and preserving and celebrating their legacies.
Salus by Solvere is a holistic wellness platform on which all programming for the senior living community is based. Like all of our programs, Salus begins with truly learning who you are and what you treasure. The Salus philosophy is integrated throughout every aspect of life here, so you’ll enjoy an abundance of programs, events and fascinating ways to connect with your neighbors and our team members.
In the secured Valeo memory care neighborhood, residents and their families enjoy a sense of community where the team is focused on maximizing the abilities of those living with memory impairment in a comfortable and safe environment that feels like home.
