As an Independent Living community, Glen Arden designs a lifestyle that promises to keep seniors independent longer. At the same time, we also make sure our residents don’t have to worry about the burdens and responsibilities that come with homeownership, especially in the winter months. Read along to learn about the benefits of living at Glen Arden, especially during New York’s coldest weather months.
Alleviates Danger
One of the top priorities at Glen Arden is the safety of our residents. Snow falls can create breathtakingly beautiful scenery. However, it can also precipitate dangerous scenarios; most commonly, slip and fall accidents as melting snow turns to ice. We take care of all snow removal for our residents, leaving them to simply enjoy the seasonal landscape.
Alleviates Stress
In addition to mitigating the dangerous conditions one might encounter during snowfall, our maintenance staff alleviates the stress of cleanup after a storm for our residents. Our residents have access to clear walkways and plowed driveways. Most older adults do not like driving in inclement weather conditions and to address this, Glen Arden offers scheduled transportation to shopping, doctor’s visits, houses of worship and much more. Our residents never have that feeling of isolation winter months and conditions can sometimes bring.
Alleviates Time
Not having to worry about snow removal or salting walkways and roadways gives our residents their time back to focus on other activities or spending time with one another. At Glen Arden, everything is conveniently under one roof: gourmet and casual dining venues, a fully equipped fitness center, an indoor swimming pool, a creative arts studio, and multiple libraries.
When seniors live alone, they carry the burden of stress, dangerous conditions, and time-consuming cleanup after snowy winter days & nights. Luckily, our residents at Glen Arden are able to take these stressors off their plates.
