What Is Assisted Living? How Can It Benefit Your Family?
What Assisted Living Communities Provide
Assisted living bridges the gap between independent living and more intensive care. Your loved one receives personalized support with daily activities, such as bathing, dressing, and medication management, while maintaining their autonomy in a comfortable setting.
At Peregrine Senior Living at Delmar Place, we provide assisted living services tailored to the individual needs of each resident. Our approach helps residents stay connected to themselves through meaningful activities and genuine care relationships.
How Assisted Living Differs From Other Care Options
Unlike nursing homes that focus primarily on medical needs, assisted living emphasizes lifestyle and personal choice. Your loved one lives in their own apartment and participates in community life at their own pace.
The difference lies in our person-centered approach. We don’t assign labels or limitations—instead, we celebrate each resident’s rich history and promising future through The Peregrine Way®.
What Is Daily Life at Peregrine Senior Living at Delmar Place Like?
Morning Routines and Personal Care Support
Mornings begin gently with our caring staff available to assist with personal care needs. Whether your loved one needs help with bathing, dressing, or organizing medications, our team provides respectful support that preserves dignity.
Each resident starts their day knowing they have the freedom to choose their routine. Some enjoy early morning walks in our beautiful gardens, while others prefer a leisurely breakfast.
Engaging Activities and Social Programs
Our calendar fills each day with opportunities for growth and connection. Residents can tend to plants in our gardens, enjoy pet therapy sessions, or participate in music programs that stimulate long-term memories.
The Peregrine Way® includes three key programs that help residents maintain meaningful connections. We focus on stimulating long-term memories, encouraging family participation, and providing comprehensive staff training to support each person’s journey.
Peregrine University brings educational lectures and learning opportunities right to our community. Residents can explore new topics or rediscover old passions alongside friends and family members.
Evening Wind-Down and Relaxation
Evenings offer peaceful moments in our spa area or quiet time in our chapel for spiritual reflection. The soft glow of reading lamps in common areas creates cozy spaces for conversation or quiet contemplation. These serene settings provide natural opportunities for relaxation and gentle social interaction.
What Are Dining and Nutrition Experiences Like In Assisted Living?
Chef-Prepared Meals and Flexible Dining Options
Restaurant-style dining means your loved one enjoys freshly prepared, nutritious meals without the worry of cooking or cleanup. Our culinary team crafts diverse menus that cater to a wide range of tastes and dietary needs.
Flexible dining times allow residents to eat when they feel hungry rather than adhering to rigid schedules. Private dining areas are available for special occasions or intimate family gatherings.
Social Dining and Community Connections
Mealtimes become social occasions where friendships flourish over shared conversations and delicious food. Family members can join their loved ones for meals at no extra charge, creating precious moments together. The warmth of our dining spaces encourages residents to linger over coffee, share stories, and build the connections that make a house feel like home.
What Community Events Are Offered at Delmar Place?
Seasonal Celebrations and Special Programs
Our calendar reflects the changing seasons with celebrations that connect residents to joyful traditions. Spring garden parties, summer barbecues, autumn harvest festivals, and winter holiday gatherings create anticipation throughout the year.
Special programs often include intergenerational activities where local school children visit to share stories or perform. These moments bring smiles and create connections across generations.
Fitness Classes and Wellness Activities
Gentle movement classes help residents maintain strength and flexibility in a supportive group setting. Chair exercises, walking groups, and balance activities promote physical wellness while building friendships.
Wellness encompasses not only physical health but also emotional and cognitive growth. Our comprehensive approach recognizes that true wellness encompasses the whole person.
Creative Arts and Educational Opportunities
Art therapy sessions, music programs, and craft activities stimulate creativity and provide outlets for self-expression. Residents often discover new talents or reconnect with artistic passions from their younger years.
Educational opportunities through Peregrine University keep minds active and engaged. Guest speakers, book clubs, and discussion groups create intellectual stimulation that residents can easily share with visiting family members.
