Addington Place of Mount Pleasant is a retirement community that offers several types of living spaces, including studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, and some of them are private or semi-private and come with walk-in showers, cable TV, telephone, and wireless internet, while the rooms are spacious and give people a chance to relax in their own space with the comforts of home. The community allows pets in some apartments and has outdoor spaces, patios, and areas where residents can enjoy the fresh air, see nearby nature parks, and socialize with others, which is nice for people who want a calm, friendly atmosphere. The staff are called associates and they're trained senior living professionals who are around 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and the staff here are known to be friendly and helpful, keeping an eye on each person's care and making sure everyone feels respected and safe with a personal emergency call system in place. The community has services for both assisted living and memory care, including a dedicated SunnyBrook Memory Care neighborhood which is set up as a peaceful and secure environment for adults with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, using special programs and therapies to prevent wandering and confusion, and offering regular health and care assessments, mobility help, and reminders for daily activities like bathing, dressing, and taking medicines. There's also respite care, adult day care, and support with home health if someone only needs help once in a while.
Folks here have their meals in a restaurant-style dining room with tables, pink linens, flowers, and friendly company, and the kitchen staff serve breakfast, lunch, and supper with a focus on fresh, good-tasting food to help stimulate appetite and encourage social time, and sometimes they use a retro diner-style Bistro with red vinyl-covered chairs, a popcorn machine, and ice cream maker for a little fun. Housekeeping and laundry happen regularly so residents don't have to worry about chores, and transportation services are available for medical visits, errands, or community outings, letting people get around without fuss. Addington Place keeps a full calendar of life enrichment programs and daily activities to encourage wellness, independence, and fun-things like movies in the lounge, a game room with a pool table and other games, an arts and crafts room for creative projects, fitness programs in a well-equipped gym, and a cozy library nook for quiet reading or study, with the grand piano and warm decor in the main lounge making it feel homey. Residents can take part in group socials, community outings, or individual activities, and the SparkTM program encourages each person to do what they're able, enjoy their interests, and celebrate what they can still do, which helps people feel useful and part of things.
There's a focus on dignity, privacy, and independence, but help with bathing, grooming, medication, and other personal care is always available as needed, and the community works hard to match care plans to each person by looking at what they want and need, updating these plans regularly. There's a hair salon, a safe bathing area with privacy features, accessible showers and tubs, and spaces for art or crafts, all aimed at keeping people comfortable, cared for, and entertained. Residents are usually adults aged 55 and over, and the whole community is designed to give a sense of security and convenience, with parking, transportation, and easy-to-move-around layouts. Overall, Addington Place of Mount Pleasant gives people a range of care options and activities, plenty of daily support, and a friendly, homelike setting where they're treated with respect.
