Harmony Collection at Columbia offers two primary levels of care: independent living for people who can manage most daily tasks themselves and a memory-care program for residents living with dementia. A podiatrist visits the community, and a dedicated therapy room is available for rehabilitative needs, giving residents convenient access to routine foot care and therapeutic services without leaving the building. When residents require help with personal activities such as bathing, eating, dressing, or toileting, trained caregivers provide that assistance in accordance with each person’s care plan.

Additional safeguards are in place to promote safety and accountability. All team members undergo background checks, an awake night-shift staff is on duty, and 24-hour staffing ensures help is always nearby. Exterior doors are alarmed, in-room pull cords connect directly to 911, and residents can opt for personal emergency response devices that do the same. An activity director coordinates daily programming designed to maintain cognitive function and encourage social engagement, a feature that is particularly valuable for those in memory care.

Apartments come in several layouts, some featuring private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, and in-unit laundry, while others are more streamlined. Every residence includes basic cable, and housekeeping is provided. Residents are allowed to paint or decorate their rooms to match personal preferences, but it is important to confirm during a tour which specific features are available in the floor plans under consideration.

Meals follow a set menu prepared by the culinary staff, with snacks available throughout the day and a private dining room that can be reserved for family events. Independent-living residents can opt into a monthly meal plan or rely on their in-unit kitchens, and weekly housekeeping for independent-living apartments is part of the standard service package. This flexibility lets tenants decide how much support they want in day-to-day life.

The community’s amenity roster includes resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, a wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, a concierge desk, a library, and several special-interest clubs. Scheduled transportation covers medical appointments, and the property sits near public transit for those who prefer to travel independently. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
