The votes are in, and it seems as if Greenville, SC, has achieved a top-three spot for the best retirement destinations. With a thriving community, beautiful scenery, and a senior-friendly neighborhood, it ticks many boxes for those looking for somewhere relaxing to spend their later years.
As we move into Older Americans Month in May, there is no better time to consider whether TerraBella Summit, in the heart of Greenville, is the perfect destination for you or your loved one. Read on as we explore how our community enriches the lives of seniors and provides the support they need in old age.
Celebrating Seniors During Older Americans Month
Each May is a chance for America to begin celebrating older adults. It is marked by Older Americans Month. It’s a date in the calendar first set in 1963 by President Kennedy, and it means recognizing the achievements and contributions made by the nation’s senior community.
It’s also an opportunity for families to consider how they can support their loved ones and help them thrive, especially when they reach an age where some extra help may be needed. At TerraBella Summit, it’s a chance for us to celebrate our community of retirees and remind them how much they are valued and respected.
Personalized Assisted Living Programs for All TerraBella Summit Residents
While we pay our respects to seniors during Older Americans Month, we do so every other month of the year, too. One way we do that is to listen to our senior community and ensure each individual’s care is tailored to their needs.
Every senior has a personal story, priorities, preferences, and challenges, and we recognize that excellence in senior care isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.
When seniors join our community, our care team will work together with them and their families to create a personalized care package that gives them the balance of independence and help they need to live a fulfilling life.
Healthy Aging and Activities to Support Seniors’ Wellness
Staying active is vital for seniors and helps with both their physical and mental health. It’s the essence of what it means to have a meaningful and joyful life in old age, and Older Americans Month is a reminder of why that matters.
Our community goes to great lengths to create a varied and exciting program of events and activities for seniors to enjoy. There is something for everyone, including:
- Creative workshops like arts and crafts
- Fitness classes
- Social events
- Mindfulness and meditation
- Walking groups
These activities keep the mind and body active and make every day unique and enjoyable. Plus, our team is on hand to support residents with practical help, such as getting fewer mobile residents to a class.
Enjoyable Community Dining
At TerraBella Summit, we have a Sensations community dining room that is often a favorite destination for meeting with friends. Sensations Dining is also the space where our residents can enjoy tasty, nutritious meals.
We have expert, chef-prepared meals with fresh ingredients, catering to all tastes and dietary preferences. It’s an important aspect of what we offer in our senior living community because we understand that senior health is more than fitness classes and social events; it’s about nourishing your body with good food.
Building Strong Social Connections
Strong social connections are vital in old age. It guards against isolation and loneliness and makes retirement life more fulfilling and enjoyable.
As we celebrate Older Americans Month, we are reminded of the importance of social events for seniors. They offer a sense of belonging and help senior living communities generate a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Every week at TerraBella brings new and exciting events. The calendar might include games, outings to nearby attractions, or a quiet coffee morning. There are ample opportunities for seniors to get together, laugh, chat, and form friendships.
Discover the Local Neighborhood
TerraBella Summit has much to offer seniors, and something is always happening within the community’s buildings. Nevertheless, part of enjoying a varied and exciting retirement is discovering some of the fantastic attractions beyond the surrounding neighborhood of Greenville, SC.
It’s a vibrant city, and there are lots of areas for seniors to explore with their families. Falls Park, for example, offers scenic walks in nature, and it’s perfect for a peaceful afternoon. Downtown Greenville is the ideal destination if you want to meet with friends for lunch or explore some boutiques together.
If you want to immerse yourself in culture, there are art galleries such as the Greenville County Museum of Art. Or you could visit the nearby Sigal Music Museum.
Greenville offers much for the retirement community and is part of what makes TerraBella Summit popular with seniors.
