  • Primrose Of Lima Description

    The smiling faces, modern amenities, social activities, attentive staff and delicious meals are waiting for you. And when you see our community for the first time, when you smell the fresh baked goods from our kitchen and our staff welcomes you for a tour, you’ll be delighted you came to Primrose.

    Once you choose a floor plan and move in and close the door behind you, you’ll experience peace and quiet. Although it’s a boring fact but our flooring — your ceiling, if you have upstairs neighbors — is made of concrete. You won’t hear a thing.

    Peace and quiet provide for good rest, and the conveniences we provide allow you to take as much time for yourself as needed. If you need to get out, say, for a haircut…it’s one floor up or just down the hall.

    Housekeeping stops by on schedule. Nursing staff attend to any medical needs. Maintenance staff repairs anything that’s misbehaving. And what’s best is that you don’t even have to leave your apartment for any of this to happen, if you choose.

    When you do feel like socializing, the sky’s the limit. Primrose hosts in-community events, parties, get-togethers, wellness exercises, general activities, and so much more.

    When you develop your pace, you might find that you enjoy volunteering for a good cause. We’d love to help you pursue this interest. Our scheduled transportation can help if you’re volunteering somewhere in Lima. If you have ideas for how to make Primrose better by providing a voluntary service to your fellow residents, we’d love to hear them!

    Your being a part of our retirement community adds so much flavor and character and warmth. Your neighbors will appreciate your contributions both socially and personally, and friendships will blossom. Your first week at Primrose is a great time to catch up — it’s quite possible you have friends already here!

    We encourage you to read our Senior Living Blog where you’ll find stories about people just like you. Our residents come from every walk of life, and virtually all of them have an interesting story to tell. If you’ve got a life experience that would benefit others, we encourage you to submit an article for our blog. Just ask your Life Enrichment Coordinator.

    Our goal from the beginning has been to enrich the lives of seniors, and we invite you to see and explore what we’ve done to attain that goal. We hope you enjoy your visit today and we hope that we’ve answered your questions about the many amenities and services we provide.
