Thrive in mind, body, and spirit.
Our award-winning, research-based Vibrant Living model addresses five foundational areas of health: Spiritual Fulfillment, Intellectual Discovery, Emotional Well-Being, Social Engagement, and Physical Wellness. Through our programming, residents can find support, maintain their health, and feel more empowered as they age. Residents will find that the Vibrant Living experiences available are constantly changing and evolving based on needs, interests, and the latest research.
Resident-Centered Wellness
The beauty of our Vibrant Living model is that residents have a say in developing it. So, if they have an interest not yet on campus, they can suggest bringing it here. Residents’ participation in Vibrant Living is entirely up to them. They can join in one or two events a week or pack their schedules full.
Components of Vibrant Living
The Vibrant Living model exists to support residents in living a purpose-filled and engaged life through the following opportunities:
As the core of our Vibrant Living model, Spiritual Fulfillment provides a faith-based thread that connects all that we offer. Through this component, we provide a variety of opportunities to meet and enhance each resident’s spiritual needs. Spiritual fulfillment is unique to every individual, and it is our goal to provide an environment rich with meaningful experiences.
Weekly chapel services at the Breton Woods and Raybrook on-site chapels, choir practice, regular Bible studies, as well as other opportunities to gather, worship and celebrate His word.
The opportunity to participate in or maintain a support network, make new connections, and maintain good communication. Being engaged in this vibrant environment provides residents and staff members the chance to contribute their skills and talents for the good of the community.
At each community, you can take advantage of frequent excursions and outings to area and state attractions, volunteering opportunities, community social gatherings, and organized events.
Together, staff and residents help maintain a positive culture that inspires optimism while providing encouragement and support for those who may be either struggling with difficult situations or celebrating personal success.
Helps residents grow mentally, maintain an open mind, learn and teach skills, and expand and challenge themselves. Our culture of discovery provides lifelong learning opportunities and experiences to keep residents intellectually active and engaged.
A range of intellectually stimulating events and programming, such as book clubs, monthly lectures and seminars, anti-aging mental games, and more.
There is strong evidence that regular physical activity provides major benefits in older adults and contributes to successful aging: less fatigue throughout the day, improved balance, reduced risk of falling, heart disease, stroke, cancer, and memory loss.
An active lifestyle is encouraged in all our communities, and we have resources to support it, including exercise classes at the wellness centers and other programming.
Vibrant Living Fitness
We promote an active lifestyle for all residents and provide extensive resources to support it. This includes a variety of fitness programs like exercise classes, as well as access to our state-of-the-art amenities such as an indoor swimming pool, whirlpool hot tub, and fully-equipped fitness center.
