It’s time for something new

Active Living – “Where your adventure begins.”

It’s time for something new.

Woodstone Senior Living of Hutchinson recently announced plans for our new project, an active lifestyle community, in our Hutchinson community under the Woodstone brand.

This inspired living experience is for people who are seeking a true adventure or for those who wish a more easy going lifestyle. At our active living community, residents will be free to live the life they currently live, without the hassles of a single-family home.  No sidewalks to shovel, and no grass to mow.  Just free time to relax, connect, or enjoy all of the things that come with a community designed with an active lifestyle in mind.

This new community will feature 38, spacious, one and two bedroom apartments for residents that are 65 and older. 

Residents of the community will live an active lifestyle.  From planned adventures to community events, there’s something for everyone. When the wind starts to blow, and the air gets cold and snowy, residents will have their own movie theater; a bar to host a happy hour with friends; a wellness center for yoga and fitness, and much more.

At Woodstone Active Living, residents can live as independently as they choose.

We invite you to learn more about this vibrant community, and what living an active lifestyle will be like by calling Jill Springer, Executive Director, at 320-234-8917. 

We are also open weekdays from 9am-5pm or weekends by appointment.

 

 

 

 

We hope to see you soon!

Low Vision Reader Presented to Woodstone of Hutchinson

By

By: Erika Smith, Community Life Coordinator, Woodstone of Hutchinson

On March 22, 2017 Woodstone Senior Living along with other senior living facilities were presented a Low Vision Reader courtesy of the Lions Club as part of their Legacy Program.

All Lions clubs around the world are encouraged to complete a Legacy Project by June 30, 2018. Lions are known around the world for their service to the blind and visually impaired, from vision screenings and guide dog sponsorship, to supporting pediatric eye-care centers. For nearly 100 years Lions have worked to improve the lives of people who are blind or living with low vision within their communities.

We are excited to be able offer another great resource for our residents within the comfort of their home. Being able to have the opportunity to enlarge items with the Low Vision Reader will enhance the everyday lives for our residents. We would like to give a huge thank you to the Lions Club for making Woodstone a part of their Legacy Program.

Diversity of Services

When you think of Assisted Living, what do you think of? Many people think of Assisted Living as a place where mom and dad can move out of the home and into a senior community and receive assistance as needed. Today, more and more senior communities are offering diversity to the services and care they can provide, due to complications of transportation and lining up family to assist with those appointments.

At Woodstone Senior Living we like to think we are more than assisted living care suites and memory care housing. We believe we are the whole package from nursing and additional services provided to activities and community involvement. At Woodstone you will receive 24 hours care within a small home-like atmosphere. Some of the amenities that are offered at Woodstone are:

  • Podiatry Services by On-Site Podiatry
  • Routine Hearing Aid checks by Hutch Hearing Center
  • Monthly Mini Massage Clinic, free of charge
  • On-site Salon for Hair needs
  • Weekly Doctor visits and Lab draws by Hutchinson Health
  • Local Pharmacy delivery of Medications by Family Rexall
  • Physician order in-house Physical/Occupational Therapy by Prairie River Home Care
  • Hospice & End of Life Care services by Allina Hospice or St. Croix Hospice

 

If you are looking for an environment for your loved one that feels like home with individualized care, plus additional services, feel free to stop by for a tour or give Sara Brown a call at 320-234-8917 ext 200.

A Celebration of Love

By Erika Smith, Community Life Coordinator

No matter where you are in life, everyone wants a day when you can celebrate Love.

20170214_120201Love comes in all forms from spending time with your spouse, seeing your children or having a gathering of great friends. All these things can bring us happiness and an intense feeling of deep affection. As we age we hope that the things that once brought us joy continue to bring us the deep affection and feeling it did when we home.

The residents of Woodstone have acquired a new scene of home, but still have many feelings of joy and love among them. Today, on Valentine’s Day we wanted to show all our residents how much love we have for them, not only today, but each and every day. Everyone gathered together, some meeting for the first time to enjoy a celebration of love and appreciation through music, lunch and the annual crowing of the King & Queen of the Senior Community.

Today we saw more smiles, hugs and great friendships blossom. Residents felt so special when we took an everyday dining experience and turned it into a restaurant style experience, full of special requests and choices they would have had while dining out in the community. As we reflect on our experiences in our life it truly comes down to the small things in life and a celebration of Love each and every day.
