Assisted living dining is described as restaurant-style, with three meals served daily. The culinary team says meals can reflect residents’ preferences and therapeutic diet needs, using ingredients such as whole grains, lean proteins and fresh produce. Dining and housekeeping are listed among the included offerings. For assisted living residents, the community says housekeeping helps reduce routine chores such as laundry and dishes. Transportation options are also listed. In memory care, meals take place in a calm, familiar setting, and staff can assist residents with getting around the campus and dining.
