Grace Commons sits on a large 30-acre site managed by Capri Communities, and the grounds have plenty of green spaces, walking paths for short or long strolls, front yards, and places to enjoy fresh air like a bocce court, pickleball court, and outdoor courtyard. The building has a contemporary design, grand lounge areas, well-lit recreation rooms, a central clubhouse, guest parking, heated underground parking, and public spaces like a library, movie theater, and the grand community room with a kitchen for resident activities or private family events. The staff at Grace Commons, including the Lifestyle Enrichment team, plans daily activities, outings, and events to keep people socially active and help with personal growth. The facility sits close to Grace Lutheran Church and even offers on-site worship services and a chapel. Housing options cover studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, some with private balconies, plus duplex and fourplex homes under Sorriso Independent Homes, and every unit has a kitchen or kitchenette, cable TV, safety and accessibility features, and washers and dryers available.
A call pendant system and 24-hour onsite care staff offer safety and reassurance, and there's a secure entrance, sprinkler systems, and the Needlepoint Bipolar Ionization system for clean air in shared spaces. Grace Commons covers a wide range of care, including independent living, assisted living, and specialized memory care under the Blu Grotto® program for adults living with Alzheimer's or other dementia. Personal care assistants help residents with daily needs, and there's a licensed skilled nursing facility on campus for those who need more hands-on care. Every assisted living resident has a personal care plan, three hours of care included in the base rate, pharmacy services, medication management, and routine and emergency maintenance. Rooms in assisted living include private bathrooms, walk-in showers, and some offer balconies.
Grace Commons supports an active lifestyle for older adults with a large fitness studio, group exercise classes, fitness programs for active aging, a salon, arts and crafts supplies, education programs, and health and wellness activities. Residents can visit the theater room, use wifi/internet, play games in the activities room, participate in organized events, or relax in the grand lounge. There are meals served three times daily in the restaurant-style dining room, a tap room for social hours, and grab-and-go dining options. Housekeeping, linen changes, laundry, and dry cleaning services are available, and scheduled transportation lets residents get to shopping, appointments, or community outings.
Grace Commons allows pets, welcomes people aged 55 or older, and provides respite stays when available. The community works with families to discuss funding and insurance options, including VA benefits, Medicare, Medicaid, and long-term care insurance. Partnership services bring physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, home care, podiatry, and visiting physician support right to campus as needed. The staff organizes lifestyle activities and enrichment programs every day, taking resident interests into account and making sure people have a chance to enjoy education, faith, friendship, and entertaining events. Amenities like utilities, basic cable, and telephone are included with assisted living, and there's always a focus on comfort, safety, and helping residents age with dignity across independent living, assisted living, and memory care.
