5 Reasons to Consider Senior Living 

2) Maintain Peace of Mind  

A progressive illness such as COPD, congestive heart failure, or Alzheimer’s disease may not seriously affect daily living now, but over time, will likely need more assistance. In some cases, your loved ones aren’t equipped to provide the care you need.

Many seniors anticipate assisted living and make the transition early, when they have control over the process and can make decisions for themselves. Look for a retirement community that provides a variety of living and care options to meet your needs—today and 10 years from now. For example, you can move into independent senior living and, as you need care, add home health services or transition to assisted living. If you go to the hospital after a fall or health setback, it is convenient to have a nursing and rehabilitation option available. At Treemont, residents are able to complete rehabilitation or therapy on campus before returning home or to their independent living apartment.

3) Enjoy Maintenance-free Living

A senior living community takes care of the grocery shopping, cooking, laundry, and housekeeping. Imagine: No more sweeping the floor, no more dishes to wash, no more carrying laundry up and down the stairs, or wheeling the big trash can out to the curb. Look for a retirement community that provides three nutritious meals a day. You’ll stay well-nourished, which is a challenge when we get older and cooking becomes a chore. Treemont Senior Living offers these plus free transportations so residents can manage their own doctors’ appointments, go shopping, and can run errands with ease. With all these tasks taken care of, residents are free to fill their time with what matters to them.

4) Stay Connected

Social interaction is a key component of a long, healthy life. As we age, friends 

pass away. Sometimes, we lose the motivation to participate in group or religious activities. Seniors may no longer drive or feel comfortable driving at night. We’re comfortable at home, but lonely.

At a retirement community, you have new friends all around. You have people to share meals with and a full calendar of activities to help you stay active and engaged.  Communities like Treemont provide exercise classes, gardening, arts and crafts, educational seminars, music and singing groups, bingo and Big Band dances, all just steps away from your home. Even during the challenging times of COVID-19, Treemont is encouraging safe, fun and socially distant events, and finding creative ways to safely support resident quality of life and social engagement.
