The Lifestyle

Community - Activities - Dining - Spiritual - Exercise & Wellness

Healthy, happy retirement living may look very different from one person to the next. At Edelweiss Village we have taken great pains to accommodate different activity levels and desires, preferences and abilities to produce an environment in which all our residents can thrive. From access to the cultural and social offerings of Boston to quiet corners for reading and meditation in our non-denominational chapel, it's all here at Edelweiss Village.

Community

Our Gemütlichkeit (ge-moot-li-kite) - a warmth, caring, and respect for each other that you see and feel each time you enter - has been part of our tradition for over 90 years.
That same warmth and respect - our Gemütlichkeit - is central to our new senior housing community at Edelweiss Village. From the moment you set foot in the comfortably-appointed foyer, warmth and hospitality embrace you. Edelweiss Village is not just a place; it truly is a dynamic and welcoming community.

Activities

Expect a busy and fulfilling day, every day at Edelweiss Village. Whether your interests are arts and crafts, structured exercise programs, bridge, canasta or poker, excursions to local events, mall shopping, or a quiet afternoon in the library, the options are many. A full-time recreational staff is at your command to assure that boredom is not an option.

Dining

Our graciously-appointed dining room serves three meals daily. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are presented thoughtfully keeping nutrition and appeal at the forefront. Each morning, join us at your convenience and order from a selection of breakfast fare. The mid-day meal is the highlight of the day with a choice of gourmet selections. The evening meal is casual and features a wide choice of options to satisfy all tastes. A registered dietitian will meet with each resident to assure that your special dietary requirements are met.

Spiritual

Voluntary participation in a wide variety of spiritual, religious and cultural events is encouraged at Edelweiss Village. Residents may choose to take advantage of our non-denominational chapel, conveniently located on campus.

Exercise & Wellness

At Edelweiss Village we recognize that physical activity is an important piece of a satisfying lifestyle. Individualized exercise programs are offered in our fitness center and are carefully monitored by our trained and experienced staff to assure resident safety. Nutritional counseling is evident in the dietary and nutritional plans developed for each resident.

 

 

 

 

Whether your passion is for gardening, art, fitness, reading, writing, or just socializing over a cocktail in the Bierstube, Edelweiss Village has something for everyone. It's all about enjoying life your way, and we’re out to make sure every resident can be as active as he or she wants to be, when they want to be.
