Our Philosophy
A Holistic Approach to Well-Being
We believe a thoughtfully designed environment filled with good neighbors and a caring staff, along with nutritious food, accessible exercise programs and opportunities to connect and engage every day, are the right combination for optimal living.
For older people living alone, these important elements can become harder to maintain – making home a challenging, unsafe, even lonely place to be.
That’s why we offer a community for older people where living is easier, surroundings are safer – and together is better.

Environment
Life-Enhancing Design
From augmented chair heights with armrests that make maneuvering smoother, supportive handrails and wide walkways to a 24-hour personal call system, optimized lighting – every detail is designed to make life safer and easier.

Care
Discreet Support
Enjoy greater independence with discreet care ranging from medication reminders to assistance with bathing, dressing and grooming – and access to daily exercise opportunities and better nutrition go a long way in enhancing overall well-being.

Connection
Where Together is Better
Unlike living at home alone, meaningful interactions with neighbors and strong staff-resident relationships are part of daily life at our community – and programs that promote participation and engagement are right outside your apartment door.
