Independent Living Homes for Active Seniors

Product category:

Independent Living

At Discovery Village, we know that choosing a senior living community can be a challenge. There are many options out there, and you might feel overwhelmed by the different locations and programs. We offer senior independent living homes for the active senior who wants a robust social life and an exciting schedule of events. From our beautiful apartments to resort-style amenities, you’ll find the comfort and convenience you’re looking for in retirement.

Find out more about our communities by reading on and contacting Discovery Village.

What Are Senior Independent Living Homes?

For the active senior, independent living homes provide needed opportunities for recreation and socializing. Entering into a senior living community does not mean that you’re ready for your active lifestyle to stop. Instead, many communities offer daily activities, outings on the town, and events designed to help you connect with others in the community and continue to do the things you love. You’ll also still have your own space, which you can decorate as you’d like and where you can entertain others.

How can you know if senior independent living homes are right for you or your loved one? Consider the following questions:

Can you manage daily activities on your own, such as preparing meals and managing medication?
Do you enjoy outings to stores, restaurants, and cultural attractions?
Would you benefit from having access to on-site medical care, dining options, and entertainment?
Has maintaining your current home become difficult?
Do you wish you were in a community of other active seniors?

If you or your loved one can answer “yes” to any of the above, consider a senior independent living program at a Discovery Village location. Contact Discovery Village to learn more about our living options and lifestyle choices.

Senior Independent Living Homes at Discovery Village

At Discovery Village, we offer independent living at a number of locations across the country. While in our senior independent living homes, you’ll find a maintenance-free lifestyle with numerous opportunities for recreation. These homes are the right option for the active senior. Let our team of professionals do all the work while you enjoy the best things in your life.

In our senior independent living program, you’ll find the following:

Grande Clubhouse amenities and our Carefree Lifestyle programs
Fully equipped kitchen in your apartment as well as the opportunity to join your neighbors in our restaurant-style dining room
Complimentary chauffeured transportation for trips to dining, cultural outings, and medical appointments
Daily on-site events and activities

And if you or your loved one does not need all the benefits of assisted living, then supervised independent living is for you. It’s the perfect bridge between being completely independent and not necessarily needing all of the care assisted living residents may need. Residents enjoy a host of included features such as three gourmet meals a day in our Sensations dining rooms, a full calendar of daily activities and events, concierge services, weekly housekeeping, and 24-hour access to our professional health and wellness team. They also have the option of choosing additional personal care services if and when they need a little more assistance with activities of daily living. For a complete list of included and optional features, please contact a senior lifestyle counselor at your preferred community.

personal care

For seniors who still want to be active but need some assistance with daily activities, Discovery Village offers personal care living homes.

What Is Personal Care Living?

Personal care living homes provide seniors with a way to enjoy a somewhat active lifestyle while also receiving assistance as needed. This program might be the next step after an independent living community, or residents might join a personal care living program when entering a senior living community for the first time.

In these programs, you’ll find housekeeping and transportation services, assistance with the activities of daily living, access to health care services, security, and 24/7 on-call assistance. Many seniors also enjoy the benefit of socializing with others in personal care living homes. At Discovery Village’s locations, we provide opportunities for socializing through group activities both on and off-site.

Since there are so many options for senior living, you might not know the difference between personal care living programs and an assisted living program or skilled nursing home. In a personal care living program, you’ll find increased access to medical care. For the families of those in senior living communities, this can bring peace of mind. And in personal care living homes, your loved one will not need to move as their needs for care increase.

Senior Assisted Living

Many seniors who join one of our Discovery Village communities need some assistance with daily living activities. They might start living in one of our communities when they need assistance, or might transition to assisted living services after joining an independent living program. At Discovery Village, our goal is to help you enjoy the amenities in our senior living communities while receiving the help you need.

Reach out to Discovery Village today to learn more about our locations around the country and our amenities.

Senior Assisted Living Homes vs. Independent Living Homes

Before deciding on a senior living community, you should understand your options. At Discovery Village, many of our locations offer both independent living homes and senior assisted living homes. In both options, our residents live in their apartments on our campuses. Everyone has access to amenities such as our Sensations dining services, weekly housekeeping, and complimentary transportation. However, in an independent living program, residents might not need medical care or other help from our team.

In senior assisted living homes, residents have access to help from our team on a regular basis. This might include assistance with the following:

Housekeeping
Transportation
Showering or bathing
Laundry
Medication management
Continuous care for medical conditions

Many families choose assisted living options in order to have peace of mind. When you know that someone is regularly checking in on and caring for your loved one, you can feel confident that they are in the right place.

If you’re not sure whether a senior assisted living program is right for you, consider the following questions:

Do you have a medical condition that may get worse over time?
Has your doctor expressed concern about you living alone?
Do you need someone to provide assistance to accomplish daily tasks?
Is paying for in-home care becoming a financial burden?
Has your family expressed concern about you living alone?

If you or a loved one can answer “yes” to any of the above questions, reach out to Discovery Village to learn more about our senior assisted living homes.

Discovery Village’s Assisted Living Homes

If you or your loved one are in need of assistance with daily living activities, then assisted living is the right lifestyle option for you. Residents enjoy the luxuries of a host of included features, such as three gourmet meals a day in our Sensations dining rooms, a full calendar of daily activities and events, concierge services, weekly housekeeping, and complimentary scheduled transportation.

They also receive personalized care services such as showering or bathing assistance, medication management, continence management, glucose and insulin management, and personal laundry. All of these services are supported by our 24-hour professional health and wellness team, our on-site medical director, and on-site Medicare-certified home health agency.

Additionally, at Discovery Village, we’re committed to offering financial security. From three-year rent locks to no large up-front fees, we want to make the process of joining one of our senior assisted living homes as simple and straightforward as possible.

Skilled Nursing Senior Living Homes

Product category:

Nursing Home

With so many different senior living options, you might not know the difference between assisted living, personal care, and skilled nursing senior living homes. At Discovery Village locations across the country, we offer a range of lifestyle options so that you can make the right choice for your loved one. Discovery Village offers skilled nursing senior living homes, which are a good fit for seniors who need an extra layer of care.

Discover why seniors choose us by learning more about skilled nursing care and reach out to Discovery Village today.

What Are Skilled Nursing Senior Living Homes?

Skilled nursing senior living homes are for seniors who need regular medical care, like an IV, a ventilator, or other 24/7 medical treatment. In this senior living option, trained nurses are on hand around the clock so that your loved one is constantly monitored. Living in a skilled nursing senior living home is a level of care that is often temporary; it usually only lasts until the resident is ready to return home or back to assisted living.

This senior living option differs from assisted living in that it offers more medical care. Assisted living residents might only need medical care a few times a week, and rely on other team members for help with daily living activities like getting dressed or taking medications. However, in skilled nursing homes, residents have access to medical care at all times. This can provide peace of mind to families as their loved ones recover from a medical procedure or a health condition. Skilled nursing senior living programs can also benefit those who require ongoing therapy.

Learn more about skilled nursing by contacting Discovery Village today.

Skilled Nursing Senior Living Homes at Discovery Village

How can you decide if a skilled nursing senior living home is the right fit for you or your loved one? Consider the following questions as a guide:

Does your loved one need constant care due to chronic conditions or deteriorating health?
Is your loved one no longer able to feed themselves independently?
Has your loved one experienced an injury? Do they need significant rehabilitation?
Do you or your loved one prefer amenities like nutritious meals and on-site services like salons, religious services, and dental appointments that are not available in a home-care setting?
Does your loved one desire more daily interaction than in-home nursing care can provide?
Does your loved one have a progressive condition like Parkinson’s disease or MS?

If you can answer “yes” to any of the above questions, consider reaching out to Discovery Village. We offer skilled nursing senior living programs at locations across the country. Our team is ready to answer any questions you may have and can even help you determine if this program is right for you or your loved one.

Senior Respite Care

Product category:

respite care

If you are a caregiver for a parent or other loved one, you might wonder what to do if you have to go away for a few days or are planning a vacation. Or maybe your loved one has an upcoming medical procedure, and they will need additional support as they recover. If this is the case, consider senior respite care at one of our Discovery Village locations. We are located across the country and provide high-quality care for seniors on both a short and long-term basis.

Discover how senior respite care can help you and contact Discovery Village today to learn more.

What is Senior Respite Care?

Senior respite care involves a short-term stay in a senior living community. This stay might be a form of relief for primary caregivers who are going away or will otherwise be unavailable for a time. Some seniors need assistance at home on a daily basis. If their caregiver is unable to care for them for several days, they can arrange for respite care in a senior living community. These stays could last for a few days or a few weeks. Respite care provides peace of mind for the caregiver as well as giving the senior opportunities to interact with others. In many senior living communities, there are opportunities for group activities.

You also might choose respite care for your loved one if they are recovering from a surgery, a joint replacement procedure, stroke, or another medical event. Recovering from a medical event can require more care than can be provided in-home.

Caregiving can be a full-time job. Senior respite care provides relief so that you can continue caring for your loved one in the future with renewed energy. At Discovery Village, your loved one will be in the care of trained, experienced team members. They’ll enjoy our on-site amenities, meals cooked from scratch, and 24/7 medical care.

To learn more about senior respite care at one of our Discovery Village locations, reach out today.

What You’ll Find in Discovery Village’s Senior Respite Care

Respite care is a fine choice for those recovering from a medical procedure or for those whose caregivers will be away. Professional senior respite care at a Discovery Village senior living community is an excellent choice for those who want the peace of mind of round-the-clock care and support. This convenient lifestyle choice includes the following:

A fully furnished apartment home
Delicious dining options
Amenities including community activities
24-hour support and rehabilitation services from highly trained nurses, physicians, and therapists

Respite care is a great way for seniors to regain strength before ultimately returning to health in the comfort of their own home. It’s also a good solution if ever a family member or regular full-time caregiver is away or unavailable for a period of time.
