The Gardens at Gananda sits on a quiet five-acre wooded lot surrounded by farmland and offers seniors aged 62 and older a range of living options including independent living, assisted living, memory care, home care, adult day services, skilled nursing, and respite care for short-term stays when caregivers need a break. The building has 62 one-bedroom apartments in a multi-story setup with an elevator, each with open floor plans, modern kitchens with dishwashers, large bathrooms, generous storage, sound-resistant walls for privacy, and private balconies or patios overlooking peaceful country views, a glacial hill, and a nature pond. Residents have their own heating and cooling controls, air conditioning, high-speed internet, inclusive utilities, and extra storage, and can bring pets with some restrictions.
Safety features include sprinklers, smoke and fire alarms, pull cords for emergencies, and fully handicap-accessible apartments. There are weekly housekeeping and maintenance services, laundry rooms, off-street and guest parking, 24-hour emergency maintenance, and professional onsite managers who handle daily operations. Residents can join activities like crafts, potlucks, exercise classes, and game nights, and make use of the community center, fitness center, library, puzzle room, and mailroom. There's a community greenhouse and dedicated garden plots so those who like gardening can plant and harvest personal gardens, and there's nearby walking trails and a view of Blue Heron Hills Country Club.
Independent living offers a maintenance-free lifestyle with amenities and a calendar full of activities, while those who need more help can get assistance with daily tasks, medication, meals planned by chefs, and personal care services provided by aides and trained staff. Memory care offers secure spaces, special programs, and activities for Alzheimer's and dementia residents, and skilled nursing care gives 24/7 medical support. For trips to the store, a bi-weekly bus ride to Wegmans is free, and transportation for outings is offered, making it easier for people to get groceries or reach nearby places. Apartments are smoke-free and designed for comfort, with large bedrooms and closets, and there's a cable plan if residents want it. There's an onsite system where residents can check out books from Walworth-Seely Library, and the whole community has a strong record with awards, a high review rating, and current licenses. Overall, The Gardens at Gananda gives older adults several care and living options, lots of activities, and a peaceful setting with comforts and support when needed.
