Currently, 1.8 million seniors over 65 reside in North Carolina. The population is also set to double by 2040, making the state a thriving spot for older adults.
Getting care for aging loved ones is a priority for many families, and choosing between North Carolina senior communities can be challenging.
Here, we’re going to talk about what makes TerraBella Southern Pines a great community for your loved one to thrive in. Read on to learn about our amenities and activities in Southern Pines, NC, so you can make a confident choice about where your loved one should enjoy their golden years!
Apartments and Amenities at TerraBella Southern Pines
The key to a great senior living experience is a great living area. At TerraBella Southern Pines, we’re proud to offer apartments tailored to residents’ individual needs.
Seniors and their families can choose between several floor plans, including:
- Studio-style suites that are made up of one easy-to-navigate room
- One-bedroom apartments with multiple rooms for comfort and enhanced safety
- Two-bedroom apartments that boost socialization by pairing two seniors in independent bedrooms together to share a living room and kitchenette
Regardless of your choice, there are several apartment sizes to choose from. Your selection will depend on your loved one’s mobility needs as well as your budget.
Apartments come with enhanced comfort features like:
- Cozy bedding and furniture
- Ample wall space for personal artwork and decor
- Storage space
- Walk-in showers
- Wide doorways
- Accessible kitchenettes
However, the best North Carolina senior communities don’t force residents to remain in their apartments for comfort. We offer a wide range of community amenities, including the following:
- Restaurant-style dining areas
- Game and card rooms
- A private courtyard and garden to relax in
- Outdoor walking paths for physical wellness and fresh air
- In-house religious services
These are great spaces to relax with a good book or with other friends within the community. Forming close connections has never been easier than it is when everyone lives together within one community!
A Vibrant Lifestyle
Older Americans are at a higher risk of social isolation than their younger counterparts. There are several reasons for this, including:
- The loss of loved ones
- Living alone after the death of a spouse
- An inability to drive that restricts a senior’s ability to meet up with friends and family
- Inaccessible public transit that can’t accommodate older adults’ needs
Because of this, it’s important that seniors gain access to social events and community activities that allow them to live a vibrant lifestyle.
Some of TerraBella Southern Pines’ unique activities and events include:
- TV and movie screenings
- Arts and crafts workshops
- Stretching and fitness groups
- Walks around the community’s outdoor amenities
- Bingo and card games
- Board game nights
- Cooking and baking classes
- Informative guest lectures about a variety of subjects
- Live musical performances
Attending these community events gives seniors something to look forward to every morning. Because there is such a diverse array of activities available, everyone is sure to find something that they like. This allows residents to nurture old passions while finding new interests.
Plus, since seniors choose what activities and events to attend, everyone in a given location will already share an interest in the activity. This is a great icebreaker. It’s easy for residents to strike up strong friendships with those who share their interests!
Multiple Senior Living Options to Choose From
Terabella Southern Pines doesn’t just offer one-size-fits-all care for your aging loved ones. No two seniors have the same needs, so we pride ourselves on offering multiple living options to meet every resident’s unique requirements for daily life.
Assisted Living
In our traditional assisted living community, our residents unlock access to daily care services, including the following:
- Getting out of bed
- Standing up and sitting down
- Getting around their well-appointed apartments despite mobility issues
- Navigating the community amenities where they want to spend time relaxing
- Using the restroom
- Bathing and/or showering
- Housekeeping and laundry
- Apartment maintenance
- Brushing teeth
- Combing hair
- Shaving
- Maintaining holistic hygiene
Taking advantage of these services is a great way for seniors to boost their independence and autonomy for many years to come. If they were not to have the support offered by our compassionate caregivers, they would have trouble getting around and navigating common areas.
Since it’s difficult for many seniors to leave their houses due to a lack of accessible transportation, this makes it possible for seniors to remain independent in a way that they would not when aging in place.
Memory Care
We also offer a top-notch TerraBella memory care community for seniors experiencing severe cognitive decline. In this community, made for seniors with dementia, Alzheimer’s, and other cognitive issues, residents gain access to additional services like:
- Unique sensory experiences that are made to stimulate brain function
- Puzzles and games that help build short-term memory and keep cognition up
- Reminiscence therapy that provides residents with a sense of self while strengthening long-term memory
- A personalized “My Story” book to make remembering the past and present easier
- Healthy interactive dining experiences that incorporate ingredients that stimulate brain function
- A focus on strengths rather than challenges
This support comes in addition to the same daily care services that our traditional assisted living residents can take advantage of.
Our SHINE® Memory Care program is one of the best in the country. It’s been recognized for its approach to senior living in memory care by the Alzheimer’s Association®. Very few senior communities can say they offer a program like this, so it’s an important credential that makes TerraBella Southern Pines stand out.
