Smith Farms Manor in Auburn, IN, offers Independent Living for older adults who want to maintain an active lifestyle while having access to health support on-site. Residents manage their daily routines independently but benefit from medical services such as diabetes care, regular wellness checks, and coordination for respite or short-term stays when needed. A visiting podiatrist is scheduled regularly, and medication management is handled by trained staff, so prescriptions are taken safely and on time.
The community’s additional care features focus on safety and day-to-day oversight. Incontinence and ambulatory care services are available for residents who need help with mobility or bladder management. Visitor sign-in protocols add an extra layer of security, ensuring that only approved guests enter the building. These measures combine to create a setting where residents can feel secure while receiving the level of assistance that matches their current health needs.
Living accommodations vary by unit size and location. Some residences include balconies, terraces, or patios, while others open to ground-level outdoor areas, a butterfly garden, or a deck near the central fireplace lounge. All apartments are air-conditioned, and parking is offered on the premises. Smith Farms Manor is pet-friendly, but not every apartment is suited for animals, and features such as a piano or organ are found only in select common areas, so availability depends on the specific unit chosen.
Meals are prepared on-site and served three times a day, with an all-day dining option for residents who prefer flexible meal times. Menus are designed to support common dietary requirements, including the nutritional guidelines important for diabetes management. Staff monitor meal preferences and can coordinate with residents’ care plans to align food choices with individual health recommendations.
Residents have access to an activity center, a library and computer lounge, and outdoor spaces for walking or relaxing. Scheduled events include happy hours, yoga or chair yoga sessions, birthday celebrations, live music performances, and organized social outings. An indoor swimming pool is open for exercise and recreation, providing another venue for low-impact fitness. These amenities aim to keep residents socially engaged and physically active without leaving the campus.
