    Welcome to The Gatesworth Senior Living Community

The team includes security personnel, housekeeping, dining staff with chefs and sous chefs, drivers, personal care employees, leasing counselors, executive directors, office managers, and front desk staff. The community is designed to provide a complete living experience with every necessary service available on-site.

    Move-In Assistance

    To facilitate a smooth transition into the community, The Gatesworth provides a full-time move-in coordinator. This coordinator assists with the downsizing process, offers floor plan measurements, and helps prospective residents envision their new living space.

    Safety and Security

    Resident safety is a top priority at The Gatesworth. The community is equipped with cameras, 24-hour security at all entrances, and daily checks to ensure resident activity. The grounds are also monitored with outdoor cameras for additional security.

    The Gatesworth offers both group and individual transportation options. Group transportation is available on a scheduled basis to various locations such as grocery stores and malls. For individual needs, residents can schedule private rides with Gatesworth employee drivers, who provide personalized service in comfortable vehicles.

    Dining Experience

    The independent living section features three restaurants, offering a continental breakfast and a la carte lunch and dinner options. The culinary team, including a renowned chef and award-winning pastry chef, focuses on fresh, locally sourced ingredients with a menu that changes monthly. Special dietary needs are accommodated, and residents can request off-menu items as well.

    Apartment Options

    The Gatesworth offers a range of one- and two-bedroom apartments, with the possibility of customization to meet residents' preferences. The community is unique in its local ownership and in-house construction team, which allows for creative modifications to living spaces.

    Resident Concerns and Family Communication

    Residents can voice any complaints to staff members, who will escalate the issue to the executive director. While independent living residents typically communicate on their own, the assisted living section may have different protocols for family communication.
