Sumter Place in The Villages is a senior living community found at 1550 Killingsworth Way, The Villages, FL, right within the larger Villages community, which gives folks easy access by golf car to places like Lake Sumter Landing and Brownwood Town Squares for shopping and eating. The community serves older adults looking for independent living, assisted living, memory care, and adult day care all in one place. There are 168 beds in total, and the facility is licensed as an Assisted Living Facility (ALF) under AHCA license #12227. People with dementia or memory issues can get care in the memory care unit, where there's a "neighborhood" design for 40 private studios, outside gardens, safe walkways, and secure home-like dining spaces on two floors. Nora's Adult Day Center has flexible scheduling, a full-time nurse, and individualized care plans for visitors, so people who need help during the day but don't live full time can join in, too.
Sumter Place offers a range of services made for older adults, like assistance with daily things such as bathing, dressing, laundry, weekly housekeeping, and handling medications. Personal care plans, check-in systems, emergency call-alerts, and a 24-hour medical staff all aim to keep folks as safe and comfortable as possible, and there are on-site primary care doctors along with access to more medical services nearby. The facility supports private pay insurance, and scheduled rides take residents to medical visits, shopping, church, and other needs. Amenities cover Wi-Fi throughout the building, private dining rooms, a beauty and barber shop, game and activity areas, a gym, putting greens, and charging stations for golf cars. Residents have electricity, water, cable, and local phone service all included. Pets are welcome, and there's transportation for those who want to keep as active as possible in The Villages' bigger network of golf courses, swimming pools, rec centers, clubs, polo, tennis, and pickleball.
Meals come restaurant-style with their Graceful Dining program and chef-prepared homestyle options in both the main building and separate memory care areas. The 24-hour bistro stays open for snacks and drinks. Regular activities range from sing-alongs, bingo, social gatherings, baking, crafts, ice cream socials, and more, and there are community rooms to meet with friends. The facility has a library, theater, arts and crafts studio, indoor heated therapy pool, and fitness center. Cleaning, maintenance, landscaping, pest control, and linen service are handled by a professional team. The Living Gracefully philosophy at Sumter Place means the staff tries to help each resident live and age in a way that feels fulfilling, whether that's through the Vibrant Living Program aimed at keeping people mentally, physically, and socially active, or having multilingual services in English and Spanish.
The Memory-Related Disorders Program, special gardens, and outdoor walkways in the Memory Care unit focus on safety and comfort for those with memory loss, while people living independently or with some assistance get private maintenance-free apartments with support for daily living. There's golf car parking, resident events, and an environment where staff want everyone to feel supported and cared for as they age. Sumter Place keeps a community feel, encourages pets and family visits, and makes it possible for seniors to stay connected to their interests, their friends, and their bigger neighborhood in The Villages, all while getting the care they need.
