Choosing The Right Assisted Living Community Can Be Just As Important as The Right Diagnosis.
If you’ve been considering assisted living and you think we’re all pretty much the same...you’re wrong. Sure we all look pretty and we have lots of activities and so on but if you look a little deeper, you’ll learn to really appreciate why The Elms is so special to our residents and their families. Consider the following
- The Elms opened in 1985 and it is still owned and run by the same man. In fact, we’ve expanded six times; now that shows a strong commitment to assisted living in our community.
- Speaking of commitment, the average time served by The Elms Department Heads is nearly 15 years. These are experienced professionals who live our philosophy of care for our residents every day. No other community in the region can say that.
- There is no “buy in” or lease required to live at The Elms so there’s no need to tie up thousands of dollars of your money. That’s value!
- Many of the residents at The Elms still drive, they volunteer in the community and they continue their involvements with their families and in their clubs, groups, churches and civic organizations. By eliminating the day-to-day challenges of living home alone, our residents become more independent than ever. No rules, just respect.
why they all chose The Elms.
