What is independent living in Kelowna?
Independent living gives seniors the freedom and flexibility they desire, without the hassle and maintenance that comes with owning their own home or condo. Residents have a suite of their own where they can cook and entertain friends. There are also meals and social events to be enjoyed with fellow residents. Independent living is truly the best of both worlds for active, independent seniors.
Kelowna has an array of high-quality independent living communities. Here are just a few of their offerings:
Fun-filled activities
After moving into a retirement home, seniors find themselves with newfound free time. You hand over pesky household chores, like cooking, to others. Independent living in Kelowna boasts a wide selection of stimulating activities. You may find yourself taking up a new hobby like wood working, swimming, or Bridge with friends. Others may brush up their golf skills on the putting green or try out a new sport like lawn bowling or shuffleboard. If you’re itching to get out into the local neighborhood, many Kelowna retirement homes offer shopping and other excursions.
First-class dining
Independent living communities offer excellent dining. Many chefs in these communities are Red Seal certified. This is an internationally-recognized accreditation for expertise in the culinary industry. They work hard to accommodate special dietary restrictions and provide healthy, delicious meal options. Many support the local economy, using fresh, local ingredients. Dine assured that your dietary health is in the best hands possible.
Ambient places to relax
Many independent living communities in Kelowna benefit from stunning mountain views. Within the community, there are plenty of delightful places to relax and soak in serenity of independent living. Read a book on the community patio or garden or take a leisurely walk through the community’s walking paths. You can even pamper yourself in the beauty salon. There are also lounges where you can meet friends and neighbours.
Add your personal touch
Independent living allows you to personalize your lifestyle and surroundings however you please. You can gussy up your suite with your own décor, family photos and souvenirs from past adventures. You can plant your own flowers on your balcony, or in the community garden. Some communities even allow pets, so your furry friend can enjoy retirement with you. If your favourite pastime is not currently offered at your retirement community, don’t fret! Many communities offer customized activity options. Just let them you what you want to do, and they will deliver. Communities know the transition into independent living can be difficult. Adding a few personal touches can help to seamlessly blend your previous lifestyle with that of independent living.
