It’s An Active & Social Life at The Palms!

Forget what you know about the average senior assisted living facility, and delve into what The Palms at Ponte Vedra provides on site for your well-seasoned family members. The social life and activities available to our residents are unrivaled, and they’re not only available to our residents, but we encourage visiting family members to join us in our luxury facility for all of our social events and activities.

BRAIN FOOD:
We love to see our residents live happy and active lives. An essential part of that is for them to do things they enjoy and keep their acuity sharp. This is important in both our assisted living and memory care residences. There is a study/library with plenty of books, and a PC with internet access to exchange emails with friends and family and keep in touch with the information superhighway and its ever-changing world of technology. Residents can team up with their favorite neighbors and play bridge or mahjong, or compete solo against a tableful of poker enthusiasts. For one-on-one or team table games, our billiard room is known to host a pick-up game and in-house tournaments alike, as well as our shuffleboard table. If there’s a love for arts & crafts, we have a dedicated activity room which houses abundant crafting supplies, and science materials for our analytically engaged folks. If outdoor activity is preferred, a green thumb can be put to the test in our herb garden. Sharing favorite culinary offerings and family recipes is no problem with propane grills in our courtyard. We even have a putting green for keeping the short game up to snuff. There is not enough time in the day to do everything we have under our roof. The Better Health Channel website has a good article about the importance of staying mentally active and its role in healthy aging.

SOCIAL GATHERINGS:
Our residents go beyond staying busy; they do it together. Building loving friendships with neighbors and gathering with groups of other people who share the same interests is inevitable. Before they know it, camaraderie has nudged its way into their hearts. We have plenty of happenings in store to sit back and enjoy time with others. Live music performances are a crowd favorite here at The Palms. Gathering in our lounge for happy hour or enjoying a favorite scoop of ice cream in our parlor brings smiles for miles. Happy hour and lunch are also available in our outdoor courtyard equipped with a social walkway, ambient firepit, and a beautiful view of an 11-acre wildlife preserve. Movie buffs get the full-on theater experience with fresh-popped popcorn and a 32-seat classic theater. Spiritual well-being and relationships are encouraged and developed in our non-denominational Chapel complete with bible study meetings.

At The Palms, we know how important it is to keep our residents living as independently as possible. Our approach to social and personally enriching activities is the heart and soul of our foundation. By staying active and engaged, a long and happy life is on the horizon. We love it when family members come join us and experience the fun and frivolities for themselves. There is peace of mind knowing your loved one is happy, healthy, active, well cared for, and most of all social. From their neighbors all the way through every member of our staff, people are known by name and recognized for their skills and interests. We get to know each other at The Palms. We’d love to get to know you and your family too. Make contact with us today and schedule a family tour, and see for yourself what makes us the best choice in assisted and memory care living.
