The decision to move into a senior living community is not always an easy one to make. Sometimes the decision has to be made on behalf of your loved one for their own safety. However, what may begin with hesitation can end up being one of the best decisions you’ve ever made.
It is understandable why your loved one may resist leaving the home they knew to live in an environment that is unfamiliar. However, we know that there are many pros to living in a senior living community, from safety to a sense of community to new friendships.
Through reviews from our residents and their loved ones, learn more about life at Arbor Terrace Peachtree City.
Safety
Sometimes it is no longer safe for your loved one to live alone at home. Maybe the upkeep is too much or the home isn’t “aging-ready.” Maybe you’ve noticed signs of decline like missed medications and scorched pans. When this happens, a move into a senior living community is important for their safety and well-being.
Knowing your loved one is safe and cared for is a tremendous relief for many family members. Pamela Reinholz shared this heartwarming message, “Arbor Terrace Peachtree City has proven that it is the best place for my father! I live far away and I am comforted by the fact that he is safe, looked after, and active. Thank you!”
Feels Like Home
Senior living communities help build a sense of community. Our trained staff keeps residents engaged and maintains deep connections through shared interests and stories. Our community is modern and updated with cozy corners for reading, gardens, and dining rooms where residents eat together.
When considering a move to senior living, reviews like Hazel Warren’s are reassuring to families. She shared, “I moved my mother from Texas to Arbor Terrace to be closer to me. This was the best move she could have made. For over four years she has been very happy and more active since moving there. She was by herself at her home. Steven has ensured safety and protection from COVID. Wonderful place to live. Mother does not want to move. That's something for her to feel this way.”
Amenities
When thinking of a senior living community, some may remember visiting their grandparents in a nursing home. From pools and game rooms to libraries and cocktail lounges, this is not your great-grandma’s senior living.
The way we look at senior living has evolved and seniors are staying active now more than ever. In addition to the modern and updated decor, senior living communities offer many amenities like housekeeping, laundry services, and transportation. Having a bit of extra help from the staff comes in handy. Sandra Logan shared her loved one’s experience, “I would advise anyone looking for full-service accommodations to come to Arbor Terrace. The community is clean, beautifully furnished, and has every service you can possibly want. The staff makes the residents every need their priority. They really do have servants' hearts.”
Activities
Seniors can be affected the most when it comes to isolation, especially while dealing with an ongoing pandemic. Due to increased isolation, seniors are reevaluating their living arrangements.
A family member commented, “My dad is very happy at Arbor Terrace. He enjoys the social aspect of being there and having activities to entertain him throughout the week. Having good meals to choose from and company while dining are all things that keep us young and happy!”
