Reimagining Retirement at The Vero at Orange

SUBMITTED BY: ALISSA SAUER

At 197 Indian River Road, The Vero at Orange has recently opened for older adults looking to redefine and reimagine the senior living experience. Here, residents can discover senior care services that include independent living, assisted living, and memory care, which allows them to embrace joy and purpose in a new age of senior living.

AMENITIES & PROGRAMS

While a brand-new building, The Vero at Orange brings nearly 50 years of experience to Orange senior living through their partnership with Leisure Care, a senior living management company known for providing exceptional retirement experiences. As a Leisure Care community, their residents enjoy exclusive signature programming, including PrimeFit Wellness, a holistic approach to senior wellness encompassing emotional, physical, mental, and social health. Their dedication to holistic wellness flows into every aspect of community life, easily seen in their commitment to comprehensive senior nutrition, engaging social programming, and fun physical fitness opportunities.

“We get to socialize together and it’s a very comfortable place to live! The activities are well-planned and wellattended. Gary, the in-house chef, is very innovative and can prepare anything you request. The food is fabulous!” says, Marilyn, a new independent living resident.

Taking a whole-body approach to wellness, The Vero knows that movement is an essential part of aging well and staying young at heart. Although they have an abundance of onsite amenities and activities, the residents and staff plan to take every opportunity to explore the larger Orange community. Taking advantage of their prime location, they offer an active social calendar with something for everyone, giving residents a choice of engaging activities daily. In the community, residents have access to group fitness classes, personal training sessions, social events, games in the game room, and volunteer opportunities. Residents are encouraged to pursue lifelong passions and are given opportunities to seek new ones through experiences that engage the mind, body, and spirit.

Care Services

Paving the way for whole-person care that meets the demands of today and gives peace of mind for the future, The Vero is a premier senior living community offering independent living, assisted living, and memory care. Care services are delivered a la carte in the privacy of residents’ apartments and in a fun and caring environment where living well is the top priority. Here, assisted living is about maximizing independence and meeting residents where they are to get them where they want to go. It’s about claiming the support older adults need to continue showing up as their best selves for the people and moments that matter most.

“Every day I wake up looking forward to working my dream job in my dream community!” says Morgan, Activity Director at The Vero at Orange. Their signature memory care program, Opal by Leisure Care®, is only available in Leisure Care communities like The Vero. Through Opal, The Vero provides a positive approach to care that partners with residents and families. Residents in memory care enjoy a gentle and flexible schedule that provides structure and freedom, while dedicated caregivers provide compassionate care for residents with Alzheimer’s disease and related forms of dementia. They understand that a dementia diagnosis affects the entire family. Through their holistic memory care services, families can reclaim balance in family relationships and find freedom and joy in everyday moments. The senior living community is conveniently located near five medical centers, including Yale New Haven Hospital.

Apartments

Residents in independent living and assisted living choose from spacious studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom independent living and assisted living apartments. All apartments come with fully-equipped modern kitchens, large closets, individually controlled heating and air-conditioning, and built-in emergency communication systems. The community welcomes pets in independent living and assisted living.
