About
The Hearth at Gardenside
We invite you to experience first hand our quality Senior Living, Assisted Living, Enriched Living or Alzheimer's and Dementia Care.
When we think of what the word home means, we all have different thoughts - memories, expectations and needs. At The Hearth, our goal is to provide our residents with the finest amenities, most attentive care, and the safest, warmest environment. Everything you want to make you feel at home.
These were our thoughts behind the planning of The Hearth at Gardenside an adult residence offering the best of two very different worlds: Independent Living Services for seniors who want to enjoy a full spectrum of activities without the burden of home ownership; and Personal Care Services in our Assisted Living Program for those who need more care and support to meet the challenges of daily life.
Our full-service senior community has been designed with your comfort and satisfaction in mind. You will find yourself surrounded by beautiful grounds with resort-style amenities. Meticulously designed, spacious floor plan options and premium locations make it easy for you to choose an apartment home that suits your needs.
The delight of living in our community doesnt stop with the charm of your apartment. We offer a perfect balance between social activity and privacy. You can read and relax in your apartment, or visit with friends and family in one of our welcoming community areas, including lounges, recreation rooms, dining room, and outdoor living areas.
Peace of mind is priceless, and in our community we make peace of mind our #1 goal. Well do everything possible to make sure that your daily routines will continue exactly as you want them to be. And were sure youll take comfort in knowing that if ever your daily living tasks become too difficult, someone will be there to lend an extra hand.
