About Summit Senior Living
Summit Senior Living is a 117-bed senior community at 5524 West 6200 South in Kearns, Utah, in southwest Salt Lake County. The property recently rebranded as Spring Gardens Oquirrh Mountain and now operates inside the Avista Senior Living portfolio of communities. Two licensed levels operate on the campus: 81 assisted-living apartments alongside 36 memory-care apartments inside a secured wing. Apartment monthly pricing publishes on aggregator listings as follows.
Assisted-living studios start at $4,295, one-bedrooms at $4,995, and two-bedrooms at $6,995. Memory-care apartments start at $5,450 for a private studio and $3,895 for a semi-private layout. Final pricing depends on the chosen apartment, the assessed care level, and the rate sheet in force at admission; an advisor walks each family through the specifics. Care staffing covers continuous shifts. Day-to-day support spans bathing, dressing, transferring, medication management, and meal coordination.
Memory-care residents live in a secured wing staffed by caregivers trained in dementia communication and behavior support. Short-term respite stays are available alongside the full-time apartments. Dining runs through anytime-dining service with a professional chef on the kitchen team. Standard menu items include low and no-sodium, gluten-free, and vegan selections, with culturally sensitive accommodations available on request.
The property maintains pet-care services in addition to allowing cats and dogs in apartments under a weight policy. The wellness and lifestyle footprint is unusual for the price point. A fitness center, beauty salon and barber shop, on-site movie theater, billiards lounge, raised garden beds, and arts-and-crafts center cover the standard indoor amenity set. The outdoor footprint adds a putting green, a bocce ball court, and horticulture-garden therapy programming.
Complimentary transportation runs for medical appointments and group outings, with housekeeping and laundry handled in-house. Medicaid is accepted alongside private pay, an unusual feature for a community at the upper assisted-living price band. The Kearns location sits in southwest Salt Lake County with the Oquirrh Mountains as a backdrop. Pioneer Valley Hospital is roughly 7 minutes north for clinical needs, and Jordan Valley Medical Center reaches in about 9 minutes east.
Valley Fair Mall and the broader West Valley retail blocks are within a 10-minute drive for visiting-family meals and shopping. A 117-resident scale, 36-apartment secured memory-care wing, anytime-dining service, dual-care continuum (Medicaid plus private pay), and the putting-green-and-bocce-court outdoor amenity package mark Summit Senior Living as a notable destination for southwest Salt Lake County families wanting a full-amenity dual-care campus near the Oquirrh foothills.
