The Commons in Lincoln

The Commons in Lincoln sits on 30 acres of rolling hills and woods near Walden Pond, so folks can walk scenic trails and enjoy nature right outside their doors. The place is known as a Continuing Care Retirement Community, or CCRC, and you'll find a lifecare plan there that lets people move between care levels as their needs change, which means the care options cover things like independent living, assisted living and personal care, memory care, skilled nursing, and short-term rehab all in one place, and there's a total of 168 independent living units, 40 personal care units, 32 memory care units, and 32 skilled nursing units, plus some new eco-friendly residences with flexible prices, and these come as apartment homes and cottages so people can pick what suits them best. The community itself looks and feels like a well-kept high-end hotel, with designated spaces for groups, programs, and the arts-folks gather for activities like flower arranging, painting, making music, and gardening, and classical pianists and other musicians visit often to play for everyone. There's a theater, dining rooms, community spaces, and good internet so residents stay connected to family and friends. The staff keep up with regular cleaning and repairs, and people say the team is caring and treats residents like family, remembering small details and providing help with daily needs. The community keeps things interesting with fitness classes for every ability, outdoor activities, arts groups, and plenty of choices for dining, and they make sure every resident, whether living independently or needing extra help, can join in. They offer services and unique programs found only at The Commons in Lincoln, which folks who live there and their families appreciate. As a not-for-profit community, the focus stays on resident care and well-being, not on making money, and everything from memory care and personal care to sub-acute rehab and skilled nursing is provided in one central place so residents don't have to move far when their needs change, making things less stressful for everyone involved.
