How does Hillside Empower Resident Autonomy?

 1.     Tailored care: No one-size fits all here! We get to know you and your needs and create a plan that provides the right amount of help.

2.     Choice is king (or queen): Want to pick out your activities? Done. Want a salad for dinner? Got it! Empowerment is the name of the game.

3.     Tech to the rescue: Gadgets like voice assistants and other smart phone features lend a hand with everyday tasks, keeping you independent as long as possible.

4.     Designed for you: Imagine wider hallways, grab bars in the bathroom, and lighting you can adjust. These smart design features make it easier to get around safely and do things on your own.

5.     Talk it out: Open communication is key. Caregivers who listen and treat you with respect make all the difference. It's a team effort, after all!

Assisted living can be a fantastic way to keep your independence and enjoy a vibrant life. Look for a place that puts residents first and you might surprise yourself with how much you thrive!

Hillside Terrace Offers Unique Assisted Living Options in Ann Arbor!

Hillside Terrace Senior Living in Ann Arbor offers four unique types of assisted living apartment homes for aging adults. We go beyond classic assisted living to make sure we have the right option for your family. 

Assisted living: The Gardens boasts 49 assisted living apartments. We work with your family to determine the daily living services needed for each resident. These apartments include weekly housekeeping and laundry services, utilities and three chef-prepared meals a day.

Long term care: The Palms boasts 16 long term care apartments. In addition to the amenities offered at The Gardens, The Palms offers 1:1 life enrichment and enhanced memory training. Medication is administered by a registered nurse 1-3 times daily, and in-house palliative care is available.

Independent living: The Orchard is comprised of nine apartments for seniors who are able to live independently but are ready for a break from home upkeep. These apartments include housekeeping and meal services as well as kitchenette and on-site laundry for independent living. The Orchard offers bi-weekly shopping trips, as well as lunch and dinner outings.

The Many Benefits of Assisted Living in Ann Arbor!

If you’re thinking of looking into a senior living facility for a loved one, you may be wrestling with the decision. There are a lot of negative connotations about senior and assisted living – no one wants to put their relative “in a home.” But modern senior living facilities offer a myriad of benefits that can help you feel better about your decision.

Community: Adults in senior living settings benefit from the presence of peers. Social relationships can be hard for older adults to maintain, especially if they live alone and are unable to travel independently. The close proximity of neighbors in senior living facilities strengthen these social bonds.

Chef-prepared meals: In addition to relieving seniors of the burden of shopping and cooking for themselves, senior living facilities provide your adult relatives with a variety of nutritious meals, including diabetes-friendly options. Proper nutrition goes a long way toward improving these seniors’ quality of life. 

Round-the-clock assistance: Basic tasks like dressing and bathing can be very difficult for some aging adults. It usually befalls family caregivers to attend to these tasks, but for many, the level of help a senior relative requires far exceeds the help their family can give. It is the primary function of assisted living facilities to help seniors with these tasks while also enabling them to be as independent as possible.

Activities: Senior living facilities are outfitted with fitness equipment, indoor recreation areas and outdoor spaces offering a multitude of activity options for older adults. In addition, senior living facilities offer daily or weekly activities like bingo, exercise classes, book clubs and outings to local stores and museums. 

Hillside Terrace is a premier facility for assisted living in Ann Arbor. Call us today at 734-761-4451 to schedule your tour and learn more about our senior apartment homes.

Changing the Stigma of Assisted Living

According to Our Parents, “Twenty-first-century senior living is shifting from something people need to something they want. In fact, Phillips says that many people who are still active in the workforce—people in their early 60s—are inquiring about senior living opportunities.”

At Hillside Terrace, we offer a variety of options for older adults to be as active as possible, and allow our residents to maintain their independence as much as possible from independent living, assisted living and memory care.
