Clark Retirement at Franklin is a non-profit senior living community for adults aged 62 and up, and the place has a wide range of care options, so people can choose from independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, and respite care depending on what they need, and because the community offers all these kinds of services, it's set up to let residents stay there as their health changes, and even promises that if someone runs out of money through no fault of their own, they'll keep getting care. Clark Retirement at Franklin sits in a spot with gardens, walking paths, and outdoor spaces, and there's a new entry and exit on the north side and new garage and carport spaces, so it's easy for visitors and residents alike. There are a variety of living spaces, including studios, single and two-bedroom units, townhomes, and luxury apartments, and people can bring their own furniture or use what's provided. The facility has gone through recent renovations, adding new apartments and making spaces better for independent living and skilled nursing, all while still caring for people living there, which shows a commitment to safety and careful planning since major work happens with residents around.
Clark Retirement at Franklin pays close attention to care, and has individualized care plans for assisted living, nursing home, memory care, and independent living, and staff members are experienced, including with dementia and Alzheimer's.

Safety is taken seriously with features like handicap accessibility, sprinkler systems, 24-hour emergency call system, and special safety measures in areas for memory care residents.
Residents can stay active and social with a whole range of activities, including art, crafts, wellness classes, swimming, gardening in a greenhouse, woodworking, reading in the library, spending time with pets in green spaces, and going to spiritual activities in the chapel, plus there are community-sponsored events like movie nights and resident-run gatherings. Meals are served restaurant-style with chef-prepared options that fit dietary needs for those with allergies or diabetes, and there are multiple dining venues where people can eat with friends and family.
