The Gables of Palm Harbor is a two-story senior living community offering independent living, assisted living, memory care, respite care, and extended congregate care services. The community sits in a bright, well-kept setting with sunny grounds, walking paths, a gazebo, and garden beds, so residents can spend time outdoors or visit the front porch when the weather's nice. Apartments come in several one-bedroom floor plans like the Georgian, Folkstone, and Dorchester, and each unit is pet-friendly with walk-in closets, kitchenettes in some suites, Wi-Fi, cable or satellite TV connections, emergency call systems, and individually controlled heating and air conditioning. Residents get open outdoor parking and guest parking.
Dining stands out with a flexible Anytime Dining program, chef-prepared restaurant-style meals, and special dietary services. Residents enjoy a diverse menu with healthy, comforting choices made by dieticians and Gold Leaf Chefs, and they can even submit family recipes. A bistro serves snacks and drinks all day. Communal dining rooms and a coffee shop give options to eat and socialize.
The Gables has many amenities, including a hair salon, spa, art studio, hobby rooms, a theater, a piano for music activities, an indoor computer room, and a library. The grounds include an outdoor patio and accessible garden. The staff arrange dozens of activities every month like chapel services, Bible studies, trips to local spots, cultural events, arts and crafts, group games, happy hours, music shows, cooking demos, trivia, virtual bowling, fitness and Tai Chi classes, and walking clubs. There's transportation for errands and medical visits.
Care services are personalized and available 24/7. These include help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, toileting, medication management, mobility, incontinence care, and more, with staff trained to provide advanced nursing and companion care if needed. The ECC license means residents can receive skilled nursing and therapy services, so many people can age in place without having to move again. Memory care services use the Best Friends™ Approach to Dementia Care, focusing on personal connections and routines for adults with Alzheimer's or dementia. Memory care apartments are specially designed for safety and support, and therapies help slow memory loss.
Housekeeping, laundry, linen, and property maintenance are provided. The Gables also offers Veterans Affairs aid assistance, financial guidance, and help with selling a home when moving in. Payment can be made by check or credit card, with an entry fee starting at $3,500.
The community values pet-friendly living, handicap accessibility, and a low-stress environment built on comfort, routine, and respect. The Gables of Palm Harbor aims to offer active, social living where residents, families, and staff work together, so seniors can enjoy their days in a safe, pleasant place with dependable support.
