New Friends prides itself on offering 24-hour supervision in three distinct lodges to meet the individual needs you bring to our community.
Vibrant Life Senior Living is the first choice for people who, despite physical or cognitive needs, want to continue living a fulfilling life in their later years. There is more to life than just being taken care of. Our residents prosper because, at Vibrant Life, the quality of each person’s life is just as important as providing amazing care.
We all keep growing and learning. That includes the people who live here, the people who work here and all of our extended families. We think of everyone here as a person, not residents, staff, or visitors. We are all people learning, growing and working together to enrich each other’s lives.
In 2019 and beyond, we are committed to having all of these groups of people; the people who live and work at Vibrant Life and all of our extended families, work together to make not just the people who live at Vibrant Life’s lives better, but to make all of our lives more meaningful and fulfilling. If we do that, your loved one’s quality of life will be as good as it can be. Our CareFriends and the people who work here will have more stable fulfilling and promising lives. Most important, our families will breathe a bit easier knowing that we are all in this together.
Vibrant Life Senior Living sets itself apart from other assisted living communities by creating personalized plans that emphasize healthy living. We focus on healthy lifestyles, building meaningful relationships, and providing activities and experiences that people who live in Vibrant Life, have always loved to do.
The Vibrant Life Senior Living care team provides compassionate care and 24-hour supervision in a comfortable environment that feels like home. Our memory care/dementia program has three different levels, from early-stage memory support to middle and later stage memory support, so each person will be living with people most similar to them. All of our Carefriends are specially trained to not only provide the highest quality of care but to do so in a respectful, dignified and loving way. Our personalized care plans encompass everything from assistance with everyday activities like grooming and dining to programming that encourages hobbies and relationship building.
Communicating with individuals and families about their strengths, history, interests, medical history, and the activities they’ve enjoyed taking part in throughout their lives, forms the foundation of Vibrant Life Care. We use this to create “Her-Stories” or “His-Stories.” These are comprehensive histories for each person. They give us a clear picture of the engaging environment in which each person would thrive.
Our passionate CareFriends are trained to provide loving, quality care while helping residents create, maintain and enhance personal relationships. Our residents stay active, safe and healthy through daily movement programs, physical therapy, and a healthy diet that blends comfort foods with nutrition. Specialized diets for those who require low-salt, low-sugar, or any other dietary need are available.
By providing a foundation for good physical, stimulating cognitive, and strong emotional and mental health, Vibrant Life helps residents continue to live their own vibrant life!
