Barrington Terrace is a senior living community where folks can choose from independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing, and rehab, so you'll find people living mostly on their own while others get more help when they need it, and it all happens on one big campus, which saves a lot of trouble moving around as care needs change, and I suppose when you live in a place like this, you notice all the little details like how there's a gazebo, a courtyard with a fountain, and even a dog park if you want to bring your pet; they have a lake, a park, and some pretty lush landscaping too, which means you can sit outside, walk the grounds, or just enjoy the view when the weather's nice. Inside, you'll see there are things like an indoor heated pool in the Cottages Clubhouse or an outdoor pool for swimming, a fitness center with exercise programs, card and game rooms, and an activity studio so you'll stay busy and meet neighbors without much effort, and for people who like to read or need computer access, there's a library and computer workstations. Folks at Barrington Terrace eat in restaurant-style dining rooms with the MyChoice Dining Program, so you can pick one, two, or all three meals per day, and there's Five Star Culinary dining too, so meals get made by folks who know what they're doing, plus a private dining room for special occasions, complimentary breakfast, care-focused dining rooms for special diets, and even a bar and cocktail lounge for a change of pace.
For health care, there's licensed nurses available around the clock, and a dedicated team for personalized support-a good mix for anyone who wants to keep some independence but feels better knowing help's there for things like medication management or daily chores, and residents who need therapies-like physical, occupational, or speech-have FOX Rehabilitation on-site and choices for rehab after surgery or illness, plus in-house doctor visits and regular religious services in the chapel. The memory care program is built for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, with features like special activities to help cut down on confusion or keep folks comfortable, and volunteers often come around to run programs, clubs, and trips, which keeps everyone connected. Barrington Terrace offers home care services if someone needs non-medical help or companionship while staying in their own space, and for folks who want to stay active, there are community gardens, group trips, clubs, a movie theater with movie nights, and even a pet therapy program-plus they let you bring your pets, in case you want extra company.
Some units come with private bathrooms, furnished kitchenettes or full kitchens, cable and satellite TV, internet, and other basic services, and folks can get covered parking if they drive, or use the community's transportation options to run errands or get to appointments or shopping nearby. There's also beauty shops, barbers, a concierge, housekeepers to keep things tidy, and lots of little spots to relax like a residents lounge or outdoor spaces by the pond. Barrington Terrace does have a state license (number 8186), and you'll find the staff know what they're doing, with different care levels, so whether you want independent living with few worries or need memory or nursing care, you don't have to move far as needs grow, and all the social activities, meals, and support are meant to help folks grow, connect, and simply keep living life each day as best they can.
