The community supports residents' independence and also has help for folks who might need it, whether that's with daily activities like bathing, dressing, or remembering medicines, and for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, Sage Tower offers memory care with special features to reduce confusion and keep people safe from wandering, and there are lots of social, physical, and mental activities to help people stay active and connect with others. Pets are welcome, so residents can bring their small dogs or cats, and for convenience, there's on-site laundry, package receiving, a detached garage, parking for residents and guests, as well as being close to public transportation and shopping, which makes running errands easier. The community points out that it puts effort into serving nutritious meals made from good ingredients and has won community awards for activities that keep residents engaged, and uses a senior-focused design so easier socializing and day-to-day living feel more natural.
