Yarmouth Senior Living sits in wooded surroundings by Flax Pond, so people can enjoy walking paths and pond or woodland views, and even though the place feels close to nature, it isn't far from beaches, restaurants, or local arts and events, and folks can pick from a range of lifestyles and care. The community includes three neighborhoods for independent living, assisted living, and memory care, and The Village at Thirwood houses independent living with smaller, easy-to-manage homes for active days. Independent living offers maintenance-free apartments or homes with social activities, fitness rooms, an indoor pool, a hot tub, a library, a billiard room, a greenhouse, and an artist studio, plus a resident portal for online rent and added services if needed. Assisted living provides help with everyday things like bathing, getting dressed, medicine, and meals, and apartments come in choices like semi-private or one- and two-bedroom spaces between 700 to 1,700 square feet, and residents get personal care plans, three meals a day, housekeeping, laundry, and coordinated health care from friendly staff who also give rides to doctors or stores, though folks have to book rides in advance for shopping or pharmacy runs.
Memory care works in a secure environment, provides programs and memory-boosting activities, and offers special rooms set up to help with thinking skills and confidence for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, and there's 24-hour support in all care types, right down to pull chains or alert buttons in apartments that connect directly to staff radios so someone always comes quickly. The skilled nursing section takes care of people needing round-the-clock medical help, wound care, or rehab, and there's help with things like incontinence, compression socks, and wheelchair transfers, while community buildings feel warm and lived-in, with double or private rooms decorated for comfort, and dining areas serve meals made for special diets, including diabetes or allergies.
The care comes in three levels, with Level 1 for basic chores and meals, Level 2 adding a few extra hands-on help, and Level 3 for folks who need more support throughout the day, so people can stay put even as needs change over time. Yarmouth Senior Living also has daily activities, outings, a newsletter called MILESTONES, support groups, and volunteer work, and local groups like the Friends of Yarmouth Council on Aging and an Age-Friendly Community Team keep older folks connected and active, helping out with food, social gatherings, and programs for mind, body, and pocketbook care. There's a drop-in center built for everyone to have a safe, warm place to talk, attend events, or find support, and families get welcome too, with special events for grandchildren and loved ones. People can find restful help through respite stays, furnished units with laundry services, community-sponsored activities like games and movies, and safe grounds for outdoor strolls, and the facility keeps things practical with emergency alert systems, scheduled transportation, and help arranging doctor visits, so folks can feel secure as they age in whatever way fits their needs best.
