Home Place of Burlington sits in a two-story building with a secure, gated community where people can find a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, some of which have private bathrooms, kitchenettes, or full kitchens, and there's the option for cottages or private rooms too, so there's a lot of choices for people wanting more space or privacy, and the place allows cats and dogs, with a dog park and pet therapy, so folks who love their pets don't have to leave them behind. The property has indoor heated and outdoor pools, a fitness center with regular exercise classes, a lake and pond with walking paths, community gardens, a gazebo, and an outdoor recreation area for gardening or sitting outside, plus inside you'll find an activity studio, a game and movie room, a library, community computer workstations, and other quiet spots. The community offers regular outings and cultural trips with scheduled transportation, and there's a range of activities like cooking classes, gardening, clubs, movie nights, live entertainment, and life enrichment and volunteer programs that help people stay busy and make friends.
Restaurant-style dining happens every day, with flexible MyChoice dining and the Five Star Culinary program offering one, two, or three meals each day, plus complimentary breakfast, and there's a care-focused dining room, private dining options, and nutrition that puts a focus on health and choice, all supported by on-site maintenance, housekeeping, linen changes, and emergency response technology. Many services help people manage daily needs, with assisted living options offering help with things like bathing, dressing, grooming, medication reminders, and medication administration, as well as incontinence care and transfers if needed, whether that's standby help, two-person assistance, or a mechanical lift, and staff are on site round the clock, with nurses on hand and awake 24/7. The community has a secured and separate memory care unit in a purpose-built building for people living with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, using things like alarm bracelets, computerized alerts, and structured routines to protect and support memory care residents, providing reminders for daily activities and carefully planned therapy, along with tailored social and sensory activities. There are visiting physical, occupational, and speech therapists for rehab and fitness, plus Fox Rehabilitation services, and visiting doctors and chapel services are also offered, which means medical care and spiritual support are always close by.
Other thoughtful touches include scheduled transportation for shopping and local events, on-site beautician and barbershop services, regular house cleaning, basic cable, included internet, a movie theater, and private parking, so people can stay connected and entertained; some people stay busy with clubs, group trips, or devotional services, while others like to relax by the pond or enjoy gardening. Home Place of Burlington funds its services with private funds, and most residents choose the level of care that matches what they need, whether it's independent living, assisted living, memory care, or something in between, with help adjusting as care needs change over time.
