Silver Birch of Fort Wayne sits at 7125 S Hanna St and it's a four-story building with both studio and one-bedroom apartments for seniors, and you'll find rooms filled with natural light, air conditioning, comfortable furnishings, and barrier-free details for easy movement, even in the bathrooms with safety bars and granite vanities, which a lot of people appreciate as they get older and want a bit more security at home. People who live here choose between independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and even nursing home care, so you see all those options under one roof without needing to move elsewhere if your needs start to change, and there's also a home care service right there if someone prefers help but wants to stay as independent as possible. The apartments have modern kitchenettes with wood cabinets, granite countertops, a microwave, and stainless sinks, and some have living areas and bedrooms, which makes it feel as close as possible to a regular apartment but with the extra help if it's needed, and for anyone needing more support, certified nursing assistants are there at all hours along with regular nurse coverage, so medication can get delivered, daily checkups like weight and blood pressure are handled, and help with dressing, bathing, or simply getting to meals or activities is available around the clock.
Meals come three times a day in a restaurant-style dining room and the staff handles special diets for allergies or diabetes, plus there are snacks, so no one goes hungry, and kitchens stay clean with weekly housekeeping included in the rent, along with laundry. The building is brand-new and has inviting common areas, like a large TV lounge, private dining room for special occasions, common room with a fireplace, and outdoor patios surrounded by gardens and colorful flowers, which makes it easy to relax or join in social activities. There's a beauty and barber salon, a library and computer room, a general store, and a multi-purpose activity area, along with fitness and arts rooms and a theater for movie nights, which the residents themselves sometimes plan or run, so people keep busy if they want to. Emergency call monitors are placed throughout the community for fast help if something goes wrong, and transportation is available for trips out or for shopping, and there's parking for those who still drive, though it's pretty accessible to the nearby downtown area too.
Silver Birch of Fort Wayne serves older adults aged 55 and up and they make a point to keep it open to people from all financial backgrounds, offering a simple monthly fee that includes access to most of the community services, meals, and wellness programs, which is a help for people trying to keep their living situation straightforward and affordable. Mailboxes are individual, laundry and housekeeping are included, and you can expect 24-hour staff coverage, regular wellness checks, and medication management so families can have peace of mind. The whole place works hard to be friendly and supportive rather than fancy, with a focus on making it easier for seniors to stay connected, involved, and safe as they age, and since everything's in one place-care, meals, and activities-it's easier to settle in and just live day to day.
