Affinity at Burlington is an independent-living community, so residents manage their own schedules while having safety measures in place. Each apartment is fitted with an emergency response system that connects to on-site staff around the clock, and routine wellness checks are available at the resident’s request. The community maintains relationships with local physicians and can help coordinate transportation to primary-care appointments, specialist visits, and outpatient therapies. While medical staff do not dispense medication, team members can provide reminders and arrange third-party home-health services if a resident’s needs change.
Beyond direct health supports, the community offers services intended to reduce the day-to-day burden on residents. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and scheduled maintenance are included, and staff members plan fitness classes designed for older adults to help residents maintain mobility and balance. Scheduled transportation to grocery stores and pharmacies is provided, and a concierge can help residents set up outside services such as physical therapy or lab work in their apartments.
Apartments come in several floor plans, and features vary by unit. Some residences include a private balcony, terrace, or patio, and many have wheelchair-accessible showers. Central air conditioning, cable or satellite television hookups, and high-speed internet access are offered throughout the building; select units are also fully handicap accessible. Parking is available for residents who drive, and common areas feature a central fireplace and multiple outdoor seating spaces. Pet-friendly units are available, but not every apartment includes every listed feature.
Dining is informal and flexible. The community maintains an all-day dining program so residents can eat on their own timetable rather than at fixed seating times. A bar and pub area is open daily for light fare and beverages, and complementary coffee and snacks are stocked in common areas. Meals emphasize balanced nutrition, but residents with specific dietary considerations can discuss menu adjustments with staff.
Residents have access to a wide range of amenities and activities. An indoor swimming pool and adjacent jacuzzi support low-impact exercise, while an activity center, game room, library with computer lounge, and woodworking shop give residents spaces to pursue hobbies. Organized clubs, community dances, karaoke nights, live-music events, birthday parties, and happy hours appear on the calendar each month. Raised garden beds encourage outdoor involvement during the growing season, and scheduled social outings take residents to local attractions and entertainment venues.
