Delancey Court offers many kinds of care for older adults, like independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, and you'll find that the community's set up for residents with different needs, including seniors who want help day-to-day and those who can live on their own but want extra support if needed, and there are private, semi-private, and one-bedroom suites with helpful features like emergency alert systems and 24-hour supervision, so residents feel safe. The assisted living part gives help with things like bathing, dressing, meals, and medication management, and the memory care services focus on residents with dementia or Alzheimer's, using memory-enhancing activities and secure spaces to keep everyone safe, plus there are special programs just for those in the Memory Care and assisted living neighborhoods, all set up to match what each person really needs. Folks in the independent living areas get to enjoy a maintenance-free lifestyle, with things like restaurant-style dining, a library, game room, movie theater, fitness center, indoor heated pool, outdoor pool with veranda, club house, sports lounge, arts room, spa and sauna, and courts for tennis and basketball, and if you want to join in, there are scheduled fitness classes, movie nights, outdoor activities, and even resident-run groups and a grand ballroom for larger events.
Residents find lots of places to gather, including a formal ballroom, sports lounge, several activity rooms, and outdoor spaces like walking paths, so there's always a friendly spot to sit or spend time, and the community keeps things running smoothly with housekeeping, laundry, move-in coordination, transportation, parking, cable TV, internet, and phone, so life stays comfortable and easy going. For those who need closer care, skilled nursing staff provide rehabilitation, wound care, and full medical support around the clock, and there's even respite stays for short-term help. Every person gets a care plan designed just for them, with options to get support as needs change, whether it's basic help or full nursing care, and in the memory care area, there are locked doors and staff trained in dementia issues, so families feel a little more at ease. Delancey Court has been developed to fit a range of lifestyles, with about 107 homes built with careful attention to details by Toll Brothers starting back in 2008, and people can choose cozy layouts depending on what suits them best, and the grounds are landscaped for easy walks or relaxing outside.
Besides the senior living side, Delancey Court is involved in scientific research at Harvard Forest, including soil science, ecosystem surveys, and studies on nitrogen and carbon cycling in forests, including long-term projects about nitrogen saturation, root studies, land use, and the impacts of climate. The community itself gives people access to meals planned for allergies and diabetes, has emergency alerts, a robust call system, and privacy, so older adults can feel comfortable while having their medical and social needs addressed, and when you add in all the social activities, fitness spaces, dedicated care units with specific names, and regular health monitoring, Delancey Court covers a lot of ground for seniors looking for support, company, and the safety of knowing help is always close by.
