Village on the Green sits on 80 acres with tree-lined paths, a pond, and well-kept lawns most of the year, although people have noticed the grounds aren't as tidy as they used to be under new management, but you'll still find paved sidewalks, a gazebo, and places to sit outside to visit with friends or watch the ducks. The entrance is marked by a covered portico with manicured landscaping, and the homes with terracotta roofs give a nice, welcoming touch. Residents can pick from independent living in senior apartments or homes, and there are also choices for those who need more support, like assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, adult day care, and a rehab center for those coming out of the hospital or surgery who need to get their strength back, and the facility keeps up-to-date licensing and compliance checks as part of its commitment as a verified partner.
Dining here is handled by chefs and planners who focus on nutritious meals with a changing menu, and restaurant-style service means people can eat with friends and try new things. Meals aren't the only draw; folks find plenty to do with arts and crafts studios, a swimming pool, a community garden, clubs, fitness and wellness classes, lifelong learning programs, and group trips out to places like markets, zoos, golf courses, and festivals, plus there are community events, activities, and social groups so nobody feels left out. The facility keeps things pet-friendly, so people can bring their pets along, and the buildings have wide walkways, ramps, and elevators to help with getting around, and Wi-Fi runs throughout so residents can keep in touch with family or just browse the web.
Village on the Green's campus makes it easier for seniors to stay in one place as their needs change since it's a continuing care retirement community, which means people can live independently and move to higher levels of care-assisted living, skilled nursing, or memory care-if needed, and those with Alzheimer's or dementia get care in specialized, calm neighborhoods designed to cut down on confusion and wandering. Staff provides help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, or meds for those who need it, but healthy, active folks can live without assistance and enjoy the full list of amenities. The facility even has transportation services, so getting to appointments or outings isn't a struggle.
Residents help shape the community, from the Foundation Advisory Committee that raises and gives out funds, to the many group activities people start and lead. There's a Spiritual Care Center to support different beliefs and needs, and the Lifespace Foundation backs projects that make daily life better for everyone here. People regularly tour the campus, meet the staff, and see what a day's like, including meals and activities, and the community's earned awards for care and support, including "Best of Senior Living" recognition, but even with awards, staff stays focused on serving residents with practical support and a ready hand. Housekeeping, concierge, and optional homecare make daily life a bit easier, and the maintenance-free lifestyle lets folks focus on living how they want.
Village on the Green isn't perfect, and the grounds need a bit more attention these days, but the community's known for its wide range of services, different living options, and attention to health, safety, and engagement for seniors, whether they're living independently or need daily support.
