Heritage Woods Description
Heritage Woods is an Assisted/Senior Living Community offering residents a dynamic lifestyle that promotes mind, body and spirit wellness. Proudly serving our community for 24 years! Registered as an Eden Alternative® community for longer than any other Assisted Living Community in the country, Heritage Woods is focused on alleviating the three plagues of the elderly: loneliness, helplessness, and boredom. It is our mission to empower our residents by encouraging participation in various committees and groups, and by planning our activities. The Eden Model motivates residents to maintain their independence and be the decision makers who engage in meaningful activities of their choosing. As part of our holistic approach to maximizing quality of life, pets, plants, and children are at the forefront of Heritage Woods, and are monumental in combating the three plagues.
At Heritage Woods, we are able to offer a variety of sizes and styles of apartments to fit the unique social and financial needs of the prospective resident. Companion suites are also available. Senior Living is the preferred lifestyle for seniors who value their independence but may benefit from additional support to maintain it. Our residents enjoy many amenities including restaurant style dining, a wide array of social, educational and spiritual activities and entertainment, transportation to medical appointments, housekeeping and laundry. In addition, on site therapy and physician services help residents to have all their needs taken care of in one place.
