Will Advances in Modern Medicine Change the Way Boomers Think About Retirement Living?

Written by Moorings Park Communities | Feb 25, 2022 7:26:19 PM


With advances in medicine rapidly evolving each year, the trend toward developing highly individualized healthcare plans for patients - particularly boomers and seniors - is quickly gaining steam.  As Dr. Pinchas Cohen, dean of the Leonard Davis School of Gerontology at the University of Southern California points out in Kaiser Health News, “we can’t just apply one-size-fits-all guidance for healthy aging.” 

Doctors are also seeing the value of addressing lifestyle factors such as social isolation as part of their overall plan to help their patients not only live longer, but enjoy more active, healthy, and engaged lives.  “There is a growing understanding of the need to design our environments and social infrastructure in a way that designs out loneliness,” Dr. Linda Fried, dean of Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health, says in KHN.  

The Un-Retirement Community for Healthy Aging

Moorings Park, Naples premier Life Plan community, has been a trailblazer in this very approach to healthy senior living for over 40 years.  By providing its residents with the best personalized, integrated healthcare and a wide array of activities and events promoting social engagement, residents stay more connected to one another and the world.

Senior Living Specialist and Moorings Park Communities' Vice President Tom Mann observes, “Our residents have discovered that the key to enjoying their retirement years is directly linked to the holistic approach to aging they enjoy here at Moorings Park.  In addition to our luxury residences, they have access to concierge physicians that develop highly personalized health and wellness plans. When you pair that with the diverse assortment of social events and activities we offer, you have the recipe for a healthy and satisfying retirement experience.”

On Thursday, March 10th at 10:30 am, Mann will host Moorings Park’s informative webinar for anyone considering moving into a senior retirement community. This discussion will focus on how moving to this award-winning community can deeply enhance your retirement experience by offering personalized luxury residences, and the individualized healthcare and social events that will help you live your happiest, healthiest life.

The community’s Center for Healthy Living® is the heart and soul of this innovative approach, housing physicians and outpatient therapy services, as well as a fitness center and state-of-the-art golf simulator.  Assisted living, skilled nursing and memory care are also available on campus if needed and are included in the monthly service package.

Social Opportunities Abound at Moorings Park

Moorings Park’s lush, 83-acre campus is also rich with opportunities to feed the mind, body, and soul. Residents can start their day with an early morning walk on rubberized walking trails. Concert events are held regularly at the acoustically optimized Bower Chapel and fine dining can be found at The Park Grill or Trio restaurants. At Moorings Park, there’s always something to do – and always someone to do it with. 

“We love to find new ways to keep our members entertained and engaged,” says Moorings Park Executive Director, Jordan Scardigno.  “Part of our mission is to make sure everyone who lives here is having fun!”

“Moorings Park offers monthly cocktail parties, plenty of opportunities to brush up on your tennis skills or golf swing, or explore our creative arts studio or woodshop. Plus, the delicious meals at our fine dining restaurants rival anything you’ll find on Fifth Avenue in Naples,” Scardigno continues.
