Mease Life sits in Dunedin, FL, and offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing services, so older adults can find care if they need little help or more hands-on support, and it's a Life Plan Community, which means folks can change care types as their needs change, and with about 200 apartments in different sizes-studios, efficiencies, and one-bedrooms-there's room for privacy, pets, and even some special unit features like balconies and kitchen appliances. The place keeps licensed nurses on duty day and night and has an on-site doctor's office and clinic for quick access, plus pharmacy, IV therapy, wound care, outpatient services, medication help, physical and occupational therapy, and pain management, and folks needing help with daily tasks get assistance with things like bathing or dressing. The community's got memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, a secure neighborhood, and special activity programs.
Mease Life puts a lot of focus on wellness and staying active, and offers fitness and wellness programs-yoga, Tai Chi, stretching, and a unique link with Rock Steady Boxing, so people with Parkinson's disease can join non-contact boxing classes built just for them, and coaches help with the boxing-based fitness to improve quality of life. There's also therapy for rehab if someone is getting stronger after illness or surgery, with short-term and respite care options. Meals are served restaurant-style every evening with a chef crafting menus that fit dietary needs, and breakfast is continental most days, with nutrition in mind to support health.
Inside the community, you'll find laundry, housekeeping, a beauty and barber shop, a general store, computer area, library, game and movie room, arts and crafts, and music activities. The community calendar includes classes, happy hour socials, casino nights, outdoor music concerts, special speakers, off-site trips, and there's even a wellness calendar for those who like to plan ahead. The place features covered parking, elevators, chapel, Wi-Fi, and accessible facilities, and provides transportation for outings and shopping. The grounds are open for walking or hiking, with a courtyard, porch, and plans for a pool and a bistro, so outdoor improvements keep rolling out.
Mease Life welcomes both private pay and insurance, accepts Medicaid, and lets people pay by check or credit card, and there's a focus on making things as easy as possible for older adults with in-room emergency call systems, medical alert pendants, and or companionship assistance when needed. English is spoken, the community is pet-friendly, golf carts get used in town, and the staff aims to keep things friendly, helpful, and joyful, which has led to recognition with Best of Senior Living awards. Mease Life uses the GrowthZone platform for its operations and has its own names for rooms, activities, and staff, all to keep things clear for residents. People can come by for a community tour to meet others, see the campus, and get a sense for life at Mease Life.
