Montabaur Heights in Clarence, NY, sits on 120 acres of peaceful land and offers a range of senior living options for people aged 65 and older, so you'll find independent living apartments, assisted living, memory care, and even a Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation Center all on the same campus, and it's part of the Brothers of Mercy's faith-based community, so you'll see a focus on a caring, respectful setting with spiritual care-like weekly mass in the chapel for those who want it. The main building has 111 apartments with features like walk-in showers, kitchens with dishwashers and microwaves, wall-to-wall carpet, and either a patio or a balcony, plus there are things like individual heat and air conditioning controls, window blinds, and units are sound-resistant and wheelchair accessible, which matters when you want quiet or need a little extra space to move around. Montabaur Heights keeps staff available and provides housekeeping and linen service twice a month, wireless internet, on-call maintenance, a 24-hour emergency response system, and security, with things like seasonal valet service and complimentary transportation to help residents go where they need.
Residents can join a large range of activities-there are Life Enrichment Programs every day, activities calendars, exercise classes, sidewalk walks, trips to local art galleries, and shows in the on-site movie theater-the place has a wellness center, a crafts area, a library, a lounge with a fireplace where folks can gather, and lovely outdoor gardens and walking paths, plus private rooms for gatherings or dining, and a Resident's Heritage Center that lets people share stories or history as they please. There's a private dining room and a main dining space where chef-prepared, made-from-scratch meals get served restaurant-style, though you'll need a reservation for lunch, and residents can invite guests or take part in fellowship through art and meal programs. Montabaur Heights features a unique Art Gallery with quarterly art exhibits-sometimes juried, like the Bicentennial Exhibit inspired by the Erie Canal-artist presentations, hands-on demonstrations, and programs that welcome both residents and families, and sometimes the art is for sale with proceeds going to support the Campus Foundation's mission.
The building has several apartment models, including one-bedroom and two-bedroom units, each with walk-in closets and multiple bathrooms if needed, and there are a-la-carte amenities like a beauty salon, gift shop, and optional garages. People needing extra care can get physical, occupational, or speech therapy thanks to the Russell J. Salvatore Outpatient Therapy Clinic, along with skilled nursing or hospice services if their needs change, and care plans can adjust as residents' needs shift, which makes it easier to stay on campus if more help's required. The community promotes wellness at every stage, helps prevent confusion and wandering for residents in Memory Care, and has staff trained to help with daily care, safety, or personal needs. People living at Montabaur Heights experience a calm, safe place set among natural surroundings, with structured programs and friendly staff who aim to support not just health and safety but also friendships and a strong sense of community through daily life, faith services, arts, and social engagement.
