Card Home For the Aged

Card Home For the Aged in Willimantic, Connecticut, has served seniors over 65 for more than 100 years and sits in a warm, inviting Victorian house with attractive grounds full of life, where you'll find a cozy yard for walks and spaces to chat over a cup of coffee while visitors and residents enjoy entertainment, and folks can talk with residents to get a feel for daily life. The home offers 20 private rooms, each with either a half or full bath, and residents can use their own furniture or what's provided. Every room comes with WiFi and satellite TV, and people here get three meals a day from chefs and meal planners who focus on nutrition. The Card Home supports both independent living and those who need a little help with daily tasks like dressing and bathing, and its caring staff stand ready to help folks adapt to their new lifestyle. There's a clear focus on independent living for active, healthy seniors, but nursing care, assisted living, memory care for dementia and Alzheimer's, and home care are all part of the mix, with community health services and hospice available through local agencies. Activities inside and outside help everyone stay engaged, with social events for mental, physical, and emotional well-being. Staff create a friendly, supportive atmosphere as people move in, with rooms shown on tours for those interested, and there's a sense of tradition and trust that's built up over the years. The Card Home is a non-profit retirement home rated highly by the community, offering safe, happy, and healthy living for seniors in a unique and intimate neighborhood where every day brings something to do, someone to talk with, and a calm place to call home.
