Convenience
Upon moving to an Atria community, many older adults feel relief after downsizing and moving out of their homes. This is primarily due to no longer having to worry about responsibilities such as tidying up the house, mowing the lawn or calling a plumber when the sink clogs. Instead, a dedicated staff handles the cooking, cleaning, maintenance and local transportation. Most utilities are covered in the monthly rent, so there’s no need to worry about paying multiple bills on time. Plus, amenities such as a fitness center, art studio, movie theater and game room are only steps away.
More Opportunities
to Socialize
Atria residents enjoy access to a robust events calendar filled with activities such as guest lectures, card games, board games, group walks outdoors, exercise and art classes, and social hours to connect with neighbors. It’s a lifestyle designed to make it easier to rediscover hobbies and find new interests. Atria communities also offer volunteer opportunities, which help contribute to an active brain, improve cognitive health and can lower the risk of dementia.
Easy Access to Care Services
For older adults who live at home and need support, they may have to hire a home health care provider or rely on family members for care services. But at Atria, discreet support from a professional staff is available when needed. Care services provided by Atria staff generally fall into three categories: personal care (bathing, grooming, getting dressed and safety checks), medication assistance and incontinence management. Memory care services, which are designed for individuals who are experiencing the challenges of Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, are also offered at some Atria communities.
Achieving a Healthier Mind and Body Is Easier
Fresh, nutritious meals served alongside friendly neighbors are on the menu every day at Atria. Whether it’s dinner in the restaurant or hors d’oeuvres at the bistro, dining with new friends positively impacts emotional and physical well-being. Fitness is also a key to aging well. Atria’s senior living communities offer outdoor walking areas and exercise classes, which help contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
Families Can Be Families Again
For many families, choosing Atria relieves the strain on relationships caused by the complexities of caregiving. Community living empowers older adults to enjoy a more fulfilling life, which includes reconnecting with family members as family rather than as a caregiver.
