Foundation Opens New Medical Facility

A new state of the art therapy and wellness center for aging entertainment workers opened Wednesday in Woodland Hills. The Saban Center for Health and Wellness is operated by the Motion Picture & Television Fund at its Wasserman Campus. The facility is a therapy and wellness center focusing on healthy aging and served the 400 residents who live at the retirement community as well as the thousands of entertainment industry seniors who live throughout Southern California. Among those present for the grand opening were Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, Dr. Cheryl and Haim Saban, actress Jodie Foster, DreamWorks Animation executive Jeffrey Katzenberg and Frank Mancuso. The center was made possible by a grant from the Saban Family Foundation. It will feature an aquatic therapy pool for rehabilitation and exercise, which was funded by a donation from Foster. The facility will also include a high-tech fitness gym, physical and occupational therapies, health assessments and education and wellness classes offered in a modern community room.
