Parkshore Senior Campus sits on a spacious, landscaped property by a pond, surrounded by gardens and walking paths full of trees and flowers, and folks here often say the community's got a lively, friendly vibe with plenty of activities planned every week, like yoga, gardening, games, birthday and holiday parties, live performances, fitness classes, clubs, religious services, day trips, and outings for those who like to get moving or stay social, and you'll find common spaces like the Park Club lounge, a game room, a library, a cozy fireside meeting spot, a movie room, and even a spot to sit by a piano in the gathering room. There are two main buildings: Parkshore Place Senior Independent Apartments with 13 floors and 207 units built in 1987, and Parkwood Shores assisted living apartments built in 1998, with several floor plans ranging from studios to one- and two-bedroom apartments-some come with balconies and in-unit washer and dryer-which is handy, and the rooms have neutral bathrooms, oak cabinets, full kitchens, big windows with scenic views, and comfortable living and dining areas where natural light's never in short supply.
Parkshore Senior Campus covers a wide range of senior living, offering independent living for folks aged 55 and up who want maintenance-free living, assisted living with help on daily tasks and medication management, memory care with secured, private suites and special activities for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, as well as respite care for short-term stays and skilled nursing services for those who need round-the-clock medical care, rehabilitation, or wound management, and there's an on-site home care agency for extra non-medical help if needed. Safety has priority here, with 24-hour staff, an emergency response team, security, and emergency call systems in apartments, plus accessibility features like walk-in showers and aging-in-place additions. The staff help with things like personal care, housekeeping, meals, laundry, and medication, and there's regular visits from registered nurses, resident assistants, and they partner closely with area physicians and healthcare providers, and hospice care's available for end-of-life support.
Amenities at Parkshore include a heated warm water pool, a wellness center with modern fitness gear, a salon and barber shop, a bistro and coffee shop, a craft studio, whirlpool, workshop, atrium, computer room, and raised garden beds, and you'll find scheduled van transportation to appointments, errands, and shopping, plus underground and resident parking and access to bus lines; pets are welcome and there's even guest rooms if family comes to visit. Dining services feature chef-prepared, nutritious meals-served restaurant-style in a family-style dining room with white tablecloths and natural light-accommodating special diets like low-sodium or gluten-free, with private dining rooms, guest meals, and room service if someone prefers to eat in their apartment.
Special programs run throughout the year, like Reminiscence Therapy, sensory-based activities such as snoezelen, the Garden of Amazing Friends for residents seeking connection, a therapeutic pool for aquatic exercise and rehabilitation, and cognitive-enhancing activities for memory care residents, which all aim to promote dignity, comfort, and a sense of respect for everyone. Parkshore Senior Campus stands out for longevity and commitment since the late '80s, and families often mention the reliable care, social atmosphere, and wide variety of amenities-folks here stay active and connected, enjoying the outdoors, pursuing hobbies, and taking part in a community that's designed for both independence and support as needed.
