Parkview on Hollybrook: Where Aging Comes With More Possibilities, Not Fewer

From independent to assisted care, Texas seniors have several options for aging with confidence. Comfort and safety are important facets of a great community. Connection is also a top-notch reason that people choose senior living.

According to The Texas Tribune, the state's population is getting older. Between 2023 and 2024, the number of people over 65 grew by 3.8%. That's faster than the rest of the nation as a whole, meaning that full-service senior community demand is growing.

Here, we'll discuss why Parkview on Hollybrook is the best senior living in Longview, TX has to offer. Read on to learn about Parkview lifestyle options, amenities, and more.

Senior Living Options at Parkview on Hollybrook

Parkview on Hollybrook has multiple living options for seniors and families to choose from.

Independent living is the one that affords the most autonomy possible. It's made for seniors who can take care of most of their basic needs independently. Caregivers and other professionals provide supportive services like laundry and housekeeping so that residents can live an elevated lifestyle.

Older adults who need more daily care help should try assisted living. This lifestyle option ensures that seniors can maintain their personal hygiene and well-being regardless of mobility and cognitive issues. Some services to expect include:

• Bathing and showering
• Getting dressed
• Using the bathroom
• Brushing teeth and hair
• Managing medication
• Cleaning up messes
• Help with housekeeping

SHINE memory care is especially designed for those who experience cognitive decline and dementia. Residents get all the same services as those in assisted living. However, those in our award-winning memory care program also unlock:

• Puzzles to boost cognitive function
• Reminiscence therapy for better long-term memory
• Sensory experiences to stimulate brain function
• Assistance from professionals who are trained especially to help those with cognitive issues

These living options mean that there's something to help every senior thrive. Everyone's needs will always be met 100% of the time.

Personalized Care Plans

At Parkview on Hollybrook, we understand that seniors' needs aren't one-size-fits-all. Because of this, we create personally-tailored care plans for every resident based on their individual needs.

Before move-in, we:

• Talk one-on-one with residents and their families
• Determine what the new resident can do independently
• Discuss what the new resident struggles with
• Figure out the underlying reasons for these challenges
• Help families choose the right senior living option
• Outline what tasks the resident needs help with

Then we create a written care plan that can help the new resident thrive. Families approve the plan before implementation. Plans are also completely adaptable to changing needs, and we'll keep families in the loop about any alterations.

Amenities and Programs

Our apartments come equipped with comfortable furnitureand carpeted flooring. Treated windowsand in-room temperature control also make them a cozy space to relax. Seniors can bring personal items and artwork to display throughout their space.

However, spending all your time in an apartment isn't a good choice. There are so many other ways to enjoy aging with confidence. Our community amenitiesinclude areas like:

• Lounges for relaxation
• A fitness center

• Movie theater areas
• Arts and crafts rooms

Activities and Events

National Library of Medicine studies show that 24% of seniors are socially isolated. There are several risk factors for this, but a lack of things to do and opportunities to form connections is one of the main ones.

Senior socialization is critical when trying to stave off social isolation and the loneliness it causes. This reduces depression and anxiety risks while preventing physical health issues.

Celebrations, activities, and events offer a wide range of activities that foster connection. There's something for every senior since they can choose from events like:

• Themed dances and parties
• Holiday events for celebrating the passing years
• Live, invigorating musical performances
• Guest lectures about a wide range of topics
• Exercise and stretching groups
• Chair yoga
• Golf outings on the putting green
• Movie screenings for some extra R&R
• Game nights and puzzles
• Bingo games
• Book discussions
• Art therapy
• Crafting workshops that use a variety of materials

Those who attend these activities and events have the opportunity to nurture both old passions and new hobbies.

Better yet, they also have the chance to meet people with similar interests. Seniors will attend things that call to them, so everyone at an event will already have something in common.

Breaking the ice has never been easier!

Plus, those who meet at our community activities have ample opportunities to foster connections. After all, everyone lives in the same community and can spend time together daily.
