The community's designed for maintenance-free living, with staff who take care of chores like housekeeping, linen, and laundry services, which gives residents more time for daily social, cultural, and recreational activities like bean bag baseball, Wii® bowling, educational lectures, hobbies, fitness classes, and field trips. Meals get cooked from scratch by a dedicated culinary team, offering restaurant-style dining in a bright dining room, along with guest meal options, and meals are watched over by a registered dietitian, so residents can enjoy fresh, nutritious dishes every day.
Residents can use outdoor gardens, patios, and walking paths, which provide peaceful spaces for relaxation and socializing with neighbors or pets, since the place welcomes animals. Inside, folks can gather in common areas like an activity room, billiard lounge, game room, library, business center, community room with a fireplace and piano, and a chapel for quiet reflection. There's a beauty salon and barbershop, a fitness center with cardio and strength equipment, and a business center for anyone who wants to use a computer or handle personal business, while WiFi runs throughout the common areas for easy internet access.
The dedicated Memory Care neighborhoods have specially trained employees and programs meant to help residents with Alzheimer's and other types of dementia, and offer extra attention and activities in a secure setting.
