“Independent Living” is the term for the program that is for the active older adults who wants neighbors with similar interests and a lifestyle with all the perks of being on vacation. Our independent living communities offer no standard care services. Some communities have an on-site physician or care team who are able to offer a la carte services as needed. This can be especially helpful if you’re recovering from an illness or outpatient surgery.

“Assisted Living” is the term for the program that includes some basic care support by our trained care team. Residents who choose this package typically need some assistance with remembering to reorder medication and/or take it timely, physical assistance with daily dressing tasks, physical assistance when in the restroom, or other basic care task. This could be one task, or this could be multiple needs.

“Memory Care” is the term that covers exactly as it sounds. Our memory needs some care, some of us may find fleeting moments of solid memories and lucidity while others may never experience that feeling again. In all of the situations, the pain and hardship are more challenging for those who love the one with the memory impairment than the one who is inflicted by impairment.

“Skilled Nursing” is a community that offers long-term or short-term stays. The care is provided by trained nurses in a medical setting under a doctor’s supervision. Whereas “assisted living” is the coordination of care, skilled nursing is the medical skilled care and treatments.

As a commitment to “movement” we offer the convenience of physical and occupational therapy on-site or we can come to your apartment for treatment. This one-to-one service is customized for you. This service is the most often selected by residents who are returning from a hospital or skilled nursing stay. We handle everything – from communicating with your doctors to working with your insurance company.

“Food is fuel” as one mother would always say to her children. That is never truer than as you grow older. As we age, it is not uncommon for our sense of taste to change or diminish. Families see that change when their mother’s cooking isn’t the same as it used to be. It may not be that she “forgot” the salt as much as she can’t test the need for salt and over salted the last recipe. The number of taste buds we have decreases over time while at the same time, our remaining taste buds also begin to shrink, or atrophy.
