If your loved one enjoys beautiful scenery and wants to experience all four seasons, there is no better place to retire than New York. Sunshine Retirement Living’s transitional assisted living and memory care community in New York, Juniper Glen, is located in East Amherst. Our residents and their families can rest assured that safety is our top priority both on and off our property. In fact, East Amherst has been rated the Safest City in the Nation for the last four years! The city also offers countless parks and trails with guided tours, such as bird watching and gardening, in addition to its close proximity to Buffalo, New York for shopping and restaurants.
Our goal in our New York transitional assisted living community is to provide our residents with an enriching environment and their families with complete peace of mind. You can rest easy knowing that your loved one is enjoying their retirement in our safe, secure senior community.
Juniper Glen goes beyond New York nursing homes and provides truly individualized, Person-centered care. Our trained caregivers offer a higher level of individualized care, including services ranging from medication management to assistance with daily activities such as hygiene and healthcare. Our senior retirement community is ideal for seniors wishing to retain their independence as much as possible, but who may need the assistance of a caring staff member from time to time.
We believe that every senior, no matter their capabilities, deserves to enjoy their retirement. With our full activity calendar and 24/7 staff, your loved one can confidently engage in daily routines and meaningful, entertaining activities with fellow residents. They’ll enjoy daily mental activities, like puzzles, games, and crafts, as well as healthy physical activities like armchair yoga and strength training.
Juniper Glen not only offers individualized transitional assisted living services, but also research-backed memory care programming. This makes our New York retirement community an ideal place for your loved one with multiple care needs or whose needs will likely change over time.
We offer our residents a research-based, Memory Care Life Enrichment Program that is rooted in a Montessori-style approach. While the Montessori method was initially developed for early childhood education, the philosophy and approaches – modified to honor the lives and experiences of our senior residents – provide physical, mental, and emotional support and encourage cognitive stimulation. Our program also encourages social connections and community by creating opportunities for residents to socialize with intention.
Even our culinary program is designed to support our memory care residents. Our Executive Chef prepares gourmet-quality meals, available 24/7 in our restaurant-style dining rooms. The meals incorporate foods from the Rush University Medical Center MIND diet, which is proven to support brain health. Entrees are served on colored plates to stimulate appetite and a server greets each resident individually with multiple daily menu choices. Our goal is that the MIND diet, in conjunction with our many Memory Care programs, will help hold off memory issues for as long as possible.
At our New York memory care community, we celebrate your loved one’s life by supporting their physical, social, emotional, spiritual, and cognitive needs.
