As we begin the Holiday Season, many emotions and realities of life may surface that we have put on the back burner for quite some time.
One of those realities is recognizing that living arrangements and health care needs for our parents or loved ones have changed, and now is the time to take action.
Perhaps dad fell off a ladder trying to prepare for the last hurricane, and this was the affirmation that the family needed to be convinced that he is no longer able to safely maintain the house the way he used to.
Perhaps mom passed away and dad, who used to love socializing with his many friends and was always active in the community, is now lonely, lethargic, and struggling to cook for himself.
Maybe you’ve noticed that mom is having more and more trouble remembering things, and when she got lost driving home from the grocery store recently, your concern turned into fear.
There are countless scenarios like these and many more that families face every day. At Freedom Village of Bradenton our mission is to help families solve these types of challenges by providing quality, comfortable and secure living accommodations, and excellent health care services for seniors.
A PREMIER LIFE CARE COMMUNITY
Now may be the time to seriously consider a change of lifestyle for your family, and that usually means allowing others to lend a helping hand. This is not a sign of weakness. In fact, having the courage to seek support and change a person’s living environment is a sign of strength. In most cases, this change is exactly what is needed to help an elderly person thrive in their later years.
Freedom Village of Bradenton is a premier Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) that features spacious living accommodations and a full range of health care services for seniors at our scenic 34-acre campus.
Located in West Bradenton just minutes from Anna Maria Island, Freedom Village has served the community since its founding in 1987 and has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of the top independent living communities in the country.
More than 500 individuals and couples live in spacious apartments and villas in independent living, where we offer a variety of top-notch amenities and services throughout campus, including several dining options in three on-campus restaurants, as well as a full schedule of social, educational, and wellness activities.
In addition to independent living, the Freedom Village team of professionals in assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation services provide more advanced levels of care to over 200 people, tailoring treatment and accommodations to meet the needs of each individual as their health care needs change.
A RESIDENT’S PERSPECTIVE
Resident Gary Schweinshaupt understands the many benefits of living in a Life Care community, and may have summed up independent living at Freedom Village best in a review he posted these comments online:
“Moving to our senior independent living community isn’t just about preparing for adverse health situations as we age, it’s about living a carefree, maintenance-free lifestyle for the rest of your life.
Don’t wait until you fear health consequences, come here now, while you’re fully able to enjoy the great lifestyle of Freedom Village – Bradenton.
When you add up the total cost of living where you are now or living in our carefree village, you may be surprised. Your children and you will feel good and have peace of mind about this decision.”
Freedom Village residents and their families truly enjoy peace of mind and a worry-free lifestyle. There is no greater gift.
