Getting older doesn’t mean you should be bogged down by your age. Even if you’re not as flexible or agile as you used to be, you can still maintain a healthy and happy lifestyle! HarborChase Senior Living knows the importance of staying active and we want to give you a few essential tips to help you maintain your health, vitality, and improve your quality of life.

Everyone loves a home-cooked meal, which is why cooking at home and making your own recipes can be even more rewarding than going to a restaurant. You’re not only able to select the ingredients and flavors that go into your meal, but most recipes call for more substantial portions or are labeled a family-sized dinner recipe. Unfortunately, many recipes are intended for groups of people, rather than one, so many seniors have trouble cooking at home.

When people think about senior living, it’s common for most people to imagine lousy food, cramped living conditions, strict guidelines, and a boring lifestyle without engaging activities. At HarborChase, we strive to change the mindset in traditional independent living, and set the bar higher with our luxurious senior living opportunities!

In today’s society, many people disregard haircuts as a means of brightening up someone’s day. Contrary to popular belief, a quick cut and style can revitalize an individual’s mood and help promote confidence in the way they look. Creating unique hairstyles can be just as fun and soothing for seniors as it is for anyone else! At HarborChase, we strive to help you help the senior in your life feel confident in themselves and ensure they are not afraid to display their personality!

When the senior in your life gets a new pet, it’s an exciting and heartwarming occasion. Your loved one will now have a new friend to create a bond with; bringing meaningful memories and trusted companionship. 

Although having a pet is fantastic, you’re going to have to help your loved one train the pet to learn where in the house they are allowed, how to walk properly on a leash, and other routines they will have to adjust to! At HarborChase, we know that training a pet isn’t always the easiest task, so we’ve decided to share a few helpful tips that you can share with your loved one to help them along the way!
