Silver Springs

Silver Springs sits next to the Torres Blancas Golf Course and looks out over big pecan trees and the quiet Santa Rita Mountains, so it's a place with views that seem to stretch for miles, and folks living here can choose from one- or two-bedroom residences that are ready to move into, all clean and tidy, with weekly housekeeping and linen service taking care of chores. The whole place runs as an active adult living community, and there's a steady hum of life with a full calendar of social events, classes, music, even a community gallery and fun activities for all sorts of tastes. Silver Springs offers independent living for those who want hassle-free days, but they've got plenty of support if someone needs it, with assisted living, memory care-including special communities and therapies for those with dementia or Alzheimer's-plus skilled nursing, licensed care homes, adult day services, and even home health care that's Medicare-certified. If extra help is needed, there are specially trained staff who help with bathing, dressing, medication, or just companionship, and for folks looking for short stays there's respite care. There's also hospice on-site and services for people coming home from the hospital, plus non-medical home care services for those who just want a little support to stay independent. Pets like cats and dogs are welcome, which always helps cheer folks up, and there's scheduled transportation to help residents get around. Dining is restaurant-style with good meals meant to taste like real home cooking, with options to suit different diets, and the community places a lot of focus on wellness, from their Zestful Living wellness programs to music and instrument activities, all to help people stay sharp and active in their mind, body, and spirit. Silver Springs has unique names for its care programs and amenities, and VA benefits are available for those who qualify. The community offers parking, pet-friendly spaces, and has earned awards recognizing the staff's helpfulness and kindness. There's a CARF accreditation too, and the whole place feels a bit like a desert resort, with a peaceful atmosphere, friendly people, and many choices for living and getting care all in one spot.
