Affinity at Southridge operates as an independent-living community, but it was designed with medical readiness in mind. Residents have access to an on-site emergency call system that links them directly to staff around the clock, and wellness checks can be scheduled as needed. The community coordinates with local healthcare providers for routine screenings, lab work, and primary-care appointments, and transportation is available for off-site medical visits. Pharmacy delivery, medication reminders, and help arranging physical or occupational therapy are offered to residents who request them, ensuring that basic clinical needs are addressed without requiring a higher level of care.
Beyond direct medical support, the community maintains a preventive health focus. Regular fitness classes concentrate on balance, strength, and cardiovascular health, and a fall-prevention program is in place for residents identified as at risk. Group educational sessions cover topics such as chronic-condition management and nutrition. The staff can also facilitate connections to home-health agencies or visiting nurse services if a resident’s needs change over time, helping individuals remain in independent living for as long as practical.
Apartments are available in several floor plans, and each unit is equipped with a basic kitchen, individual climate control, and cable or satellite TV hookup. Select units add features such as a balcony, terrace, or patio, and some include a central fireplace or direct access to outdoor areas. All apartments are wired for high-speed internet, and wheelchair-accessible showers are offered in many, though not every, bathroom configuration. The property is pet friendly and provides on-site parking, but not every accommodation includes every listed feature, so prospective residents should verify specific details during a visit.
Dining is handled through a community café and main dining room that serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner on a set schedule, with optional meal plans for those who prefer to cook in their own kitchens. Menus rotate regularly and include low-sodium, diabetic-friendly, and vegetarian choices when requested. Snacks and beverages are available throughout the day, and residents can attend occasional themed meals or cookouts held on the deck or in other common areas.
Residents have access to an activity center, swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and woodworking shop, along with raised garden beds for personal gardening projects. Scheduled programs include happy hour, birthday parties, dances, live-music performances, clubs, and various social outings. A library and computer lounge supports both casual reading and internet use, and organized interest groups meet weekly to plan off-site excursions or on-site events.
