Stone River Retirement Community in Bradenton offers Independent Living with access to multiple clinical resources. Residents can arrange visits with an on-call doctor, speech therapist, nurse, occupational therapist, physical therapist, and podiatrist, all without leaving the property. These services support routine wellness as well as mild dementia conditions, giving residents and families a clear picture of the medical oversight available on a daily basis.

The community keeps 24-hour security and staffing in place, and each apartment is connected to a personal emergency response system that alerts staff at any hour. An Activity Director coordinates daily programs, while care staff can help with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting for residents who need occasional assistance. Transfers with a walker are supported, allowing residents who use mobility aids to participate fully in community life.

Apartments are designed for residents who want to maintain control over their personal space. Floor plans may include full kitchens, private bathrooms, independent temperature controls, cable, custom cabinets, designer countertops, washer and dryer hookups, garages or carports, and patios or balconies; exact features vary by unit. Weekly housekeeping is included for Independent Living.

Dining follows an on-order model with the option for room service and a 24-hour chef’s pantry for snacks and light meals at any time. Independent Living residents participate in a monthly meal plan that balances flexibility with predictable budgeting.

Residents have access to parking, valet service, scheduled transportation, a fitness room, barber and beauty shop, concierge desk, library, 150-seat theater, billiards area, computer center, live-in managers, pharmacy and gift shop, resident travel program, visitor suite, banking services, and high-speed internet. Pets are welcome, but it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
