Solista Durham by Cogir offers an Independent Living program designed for residents who want to maintain autonomy while having supportive health resources on hand. A 24-hour emergency response system, on-site wellness checks, and coordination with local physicians ensure residents can access medical attention quickly when needed. Medication reminders and help scheduling specialist visits are available, and licensed nurses are present on a routine basis to keep an eye on chronic conditions such as diabetes or hypertension.
Beyond routine medical oversight, the community provides structured wellness programs that include fitness classes, fall-prevention exercises, and periodic screenings such as blood-pressure and weight monitoring. Transportation is arranged for off-site medical appointments, and rehabilitation providers—physical, occupational, and speech therapists—visit as medically prescribed. Staff members track each resident’s care plan and communicate updates to families, creating a straightforward channel for health information.
Apartments vary in layout and size, ranging from studios with kitchenettes to larger units that add a balcony, terrace, or patio. Features available in select residences include independent temperature controls, private bathrooms, wheelchair-accessible showers, Wi-Fi, cable or satellite TV, and in-room air conditioning. Common areas offer a central fireplace, outdoor decks, and convenient parking. Residents may paint or decorate their living space to personalize it, and the community is pet friendly. Not all accommodations come with every feature listed, so prospective residents should confirm specific details during a visit.
Dining follows a flexible approach with three chef-prepared meals each day, a rotating set menu, and an on-order option for residents who prefer something different. Snacks are available throughout the day, and guest meals can be arranged. The culinary team accommodates doctor-prescribed diet modifications, including low-sodium, diabetic, and heart-healthy meal plans, and works with residents to adjust portion sizes or ingredients as needed.
Leisure and social life center around an activity hub that houses a library and computer lounge, while outdoor areas allow residents to relax or participate in yoga and chair-yoga sessions. The calendar features karaoke nights, live-music performances, birthday celebrations, and regular social outings to local attractions. A swimming pool offers additional fitness and recreation opportunities, rounding out a straightforward but diverse slate of amenities and services.
