GREENFIELD TERRACE IS OPEN RESIDENTS BEGIN MOVING IN

(LANCASTER, NEW YORK) The first week of February twelve (12) residents moved into their new home and new way of life at GreenField Terrace, the newest addition to The GreenFields Continuing Care Community on Broadway in Lancaster, adding memory care and enhanced assisted living to the list of senior living services provided on campus.

Residents were warmly greeted by their Care Partners, staff, and family members who showed them around, set up their rooms, and introduced them to their new home. It was easy to see they were notably impressed with the ambience at GreenField Terrace, which is especially designed to be just like home, giving residents individual choices, helping them develop caring relationships, and providing nurturing support. When asked how everything was going, one woman exclaimed, “This is so nice! It’s like home.”

GreenField Terrace consists of four separate houses surrounding an inviting enclosed courtyard. In three of the houses, residents requiring memory care receive individualized attention 24 hours a day. In the fourth house, people whose needs fall between traditional assisted living and skilled nursing receive the enhanced assisted living care they need. Residents are able to decide what time they want to get up, when they want to eat, and what activities they want to do each day – just like home. In addition, everyone in the household works together to make decisions concerning the household, such as what the weekly menu should be or whether or not to have a pet become part of their household.

Life at GreenField Terrace includes three home-style meals each day, 24-hour assistance with daily living activities and medication management, housekeeping/laundry services, and scheduled medical transportation, along with social, cultural, educational, spiritual, and recreational programs. Twenty-four hour security and an emergency response system are also provided.

GreenField Terrace is part of The GreenFields Continuing Care Community where each resident has priority access to all the services provided on campus – residential apartment homes, assisted living apartments, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, outpatient therapy and, now, memory care and enhanced assisted living. There is no entrance fee at The GreenFields.
