Assisted Living
What is Assisted Living?
Glossary: Assisted Living
Assisted living residents are those who do not need 24-hour or complex medical supervision, but may need or want assistance with some aspects of daily life such as bathing and dressing, getting around, or medication reminders.
CLOSE
Five Star’s assisted living services support seniors who can no longer live on their own safely yet also do not require complex, round-the-clock medical care. With respect for their privacy and dignity, we offer seniors friendly assistance with the activities of daily living, such as personal care, transportation, and medication reminders.

Respite Care / Short-term Stays
What are Respite Care / Short-term Stays?
Glossary: Respite Care / Short-term Stays
Respite Care / Short-term Stays are great for seniors when families travel out of town or simply need a break from the stresses of caregiving. They can also be a good option for those considering senior living and want to "try it out" before making a long-term commitment. Short-term stays allow residents to enjoy housekeeping services, community activities, dining, and all other amenities enjoyed by our permanent residents. In addition to the benefits of physical care, our short-term residents often make friendships that enrich life in a way that only connecting with others can.
CLOSE
For seniors needing temporary care or whose family have to travel or take time for themselves – or for those who want to “test drive” life at one of our senior living communities – Five Star offers short stays. Whether for a week or a few months, seniors enjoy exceptional care, community activities, dining, and housekeeping services – and family members enjoy peace of mind.
Lifestyle360
What is Lifestyle360?
Glossary: Lifestyle360
Lifestyle360 is a research-based approach to resident health that focuses on 5 different dimensions of wellness: intellectual, social, physical, emotional, and spiritual.
CLOSE
At Five Star Senior Living, we invite residents into our senior living communities not just to live with us, but to thrive with us. It’s been widely publicized that adults are living longer but there is a lot of evidence that we aren’t necessarily living longer in a healthy state. Five Star is working to change that with our Lifestyle360 program - a holistic approach to active community living that focuses on five dimensions of wellness: intellectual, social, physical, emotional, and spiritual.
