Some people think that moving to a retirement community means giving up your independence and freedom. That is a misconception and an outdated view of senior living. Contrary to that belief, moving to assisted living gives you more freedom than ever to enjoy life in many new ways, without the responsibilities of maintaining your home, or taking care of your grandchildren. Here’s how you can enjoy your golden years in carefree assisted living.
Daily Activities and Senior-Focused Programs
Many retirement communities offer daily senior living activities and programs for their residents to participate in. These lifestyle programs range from movie nights to shopping trips, fitness classes to games night, and spiritual classes to therapies. There are so many activities for you to choose from that you’ll be spoilt for choice! This is the perfect opportunity for you to pick up a new hobby, or socialize and meet some new friends.
Cognitive Wellness
Staying active mentally and physically can help reduce the risk of dementia by building new connections in your brain. Assisted living plans and offers an abundance of lifelong learning options for you to choose from. Not to forget, it is all available at your doorstep, right at your place of residence! Discovery Commons at Cypress Point offers an extensive events calendar specially planned by our full-time activities director, aimed at making each day as active and exciting as possible for you!
Get in touch with your spiritual side as you join our weekly worship session with our Pastor! If you are an animal lover, you would love our weekly therapy dog visits with the adorable Zola and Caiya! Some of our other exciting events include Disco Day, Save The Bees, International Foods Day, and more.
Make Friends
In our close-knitted community, it would be easy for you to socialize and make friends with your friendly neighbors, and our helpful team members! Being around friends and participating in social activities together can be a joy, while giving you something to look forward to each day. Staying socially active helps to foster a sense of belonging and improve your mental well-being. It also decreases your risk of cognitive impairments, such as dementia.
Personalized Care and Attention
Living at home independently can be challenging, especially when you could benefit from a helping hand with your daily living activities. In assisted living, you can rest assure knowing that you have a team of qualified professionals available round the clock whenever you need them. Assisted living is a care-focused solution, where help is given when needed, while giving you the independence and ability to be self-reliant at the same time.
Maintenance Free
Maintaining a home can be challenging, especially with the abundance of chores that never seem to end. At assisted living, you can enjoy the comfort of comfy suites and apartment homes, without the daily upkeep! Regular housekeeping and clothes washing services are available to take these chores off your plate. Another huge advantage is that three gourmet-prepared meals will be ready for you every day, with tidbits included! That means you wouldn’t have to bear the heat of the kitchen and the washing of dirty dishes to enjoy a hot home-cooked meal.
