Kentlands Manor is a senior living community set up for people aged 62 and better, and it's the kind of place where residents can live on their own while also having the right support and amenities close by, which can make life a bit safer and easier. There are one and two-bedroom apartments with roomy floor plans, baths with safety features like accessible showers and bathtubs, in-unit washers and dryers in some homes, stainless steel appliances, dishwashers, refrigerators with ice makers, central heat and air conditioning, and patios or balconies so you can get a bit of fresh air. Some units have extra storage and all are set up to be friendly for people who might need a little more accessibility or have mobility needs. Residents can bring their cats, which can make it feel even more like home, and garages and parking are available, so keeping a car or having guests over doesn't cause trouble.
Around the community, you get plenty of spaces to spend time with friends, like the game room for things like billiards and bridge, a fitness center with modern machines and aerobics sessions, a business resource center for sending emails to family, a movie lounge, and a library where you can always find something to read. There's a clubhouse for social events and gatherings, and outside you'll find a pool that's great for summer, horseshoes, shuffleboard, and tennis courts for staying active. Kentlands Manor keeps a full schedule of social, educational, and entertaining events, including pool parties, free summer concerts on weekends, and all sorts of planned group activities, and the idea is to make it easy to meet new people or catch up with old friends whenever you want to.
Support services are simple but cover what's needed-medication management if you need it, help with building maintenance, security with controlled access and a monitored emergency system, transportation services for when you need to get out and about, and staff who are trained and available. There's elevator service for easy access to every floor, and if there's a problem or request, you can use a web-based request service or talk to someone during office hours Monday through Saturday. Residents get a free membership to the Kentlands Citizen's Assembly, which means they can use two Olympic-sized pools and join even more community events in the area. Being right by shops, restaurants, and a movie theater makes it easy to get errands done or go out for fun, and public transit is nearby for those who prefer not to drive.
People can keep up an independent lifestyle at Kentlands Manor, and they don't have to give up comfort or the chance to join in, whether it's by growing friendships, getting active, or learning something new at one of the many programs and activities.
