For more than two decades, Good Neighbor Care® has approached senior living with the goal of recapturing the spirit of community. We care about seniors with the respect and compassion they have earned. We understand our role as extended family for the residents in our care. Most importantly, we are experts on aging, and we also understand the fears and concerns many families encounter when faced with the uncertainty of caring for an aging loved one.
The spirit of being a good neighbor extends not only to our residents, but also to their families. We care for the entire family and it’s our goal to make certain they have the right information to make the best decisions for their loved ones. Every person who visits a Good Neighbor Care® community leaves better educated about the aging process and armed with resources to help navigate this natural season of life.
Community - Neighborhood - Friends - Family - Compassion - Respect - Dignity
These seem like forgotten words in today’s society – but they shouldn’t be. Our view of family and friends hasn’t changed in spite of our hectic schedules and busy lives. If you look closely, you’ll see that compassion, respect, and dignity are still very important to everyone.
Where Neighbors become Friends, and Friends become Family®
Neighbors should be more than people who live close to you. Through the power of strong relationships, neighborhoods provide a buffer against various forms of adversity. They are a place to share joy and find support for hardships. Neighbors become friends when they joyfully volunteer their time to help others in need. Friends who go the extra mile are as beloved as members of our own family.
And That’s When Something Special Happens
As a good neighbor, we often help families manage the aging process even if they don’t reside in one of our communities. We care about people and want to help them any way we can. Our residents are our parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles, too. We want everyone to have a loving, caring, memorable experience when they form a relationship with Good Neighbor Care.® After all, it’s what good neighbors do.
When bringing a new caregiver into our organization, we often say, “Hire the heart and train the rest.” True dedication to senior care springs from a sincere love for residents that can’t be taught in a classroom. Many of our caregivers have worked with the elderly for 10 or more years.
Choosing the Finest Care for Your Loved One
should be Your Number One Priority
Your peace of mind and your loved one's happiness comes from selecting a community that provides the best combination of high quality care, appealing social activities, and dedicated staff. We want you to focus your attention on the things that matter without worrying about the stability of the community you ultimately select.
Good Neighbor Care® has been caring for seniors for more than 20 years, and we’ll be here for decades to come. We manage communities from coast to coast, providing care for nearly 3,000 seniors with an experienced team of more than 1,700 caregivers. We've taken steps to ensure our financial stability by providing a solid foundation that will help us grow and prosper as a company. This strength allows us to focus on what really matters–impeccable care and incredible quality of life for our residents and their families.
To help us reach our goals, Good Neighbor Care® forged a relationship with Wilkinson Corporation in 2004. It was quickly evident that bringing Wilkinson Corporation and Good Neighbor Care® together provided a tremendous opportunity to assemble a truly unique network of senior housing communities. With fifteen years in the real estate industry, Wilkinson Corporation has a stellar reputation for buying smart and managing their assets with integrity and efficiency. Good Neighbor Care’s experience and unmatched commitment to care were a perfect fit.
With concentrated pockets of senior communities across the country, Good Neighbor Care has built an incredible team of dedicated regional managers to oversee operations at the community level. We provide support for local leaders with the ability to make decisions using local knowledge and with a genuine concern for their communities and residents. Each property can operate like a family-run community, with caring individuals giving outstanding personalized service to residents. At the same time, Good Neighbor Care® provides the efficiencies of a nationwide management company, taking advantage of large-scale, national supplier networks as well as professional training programs for every community.
This strength has allowed Good Neighbor Care® to prosper. But more importantly, prosperity has led to even better resident care, just as it should. We want you to know we'll be there for you and your family for years to come.
Independent Living ~
Several Good Neighbor Communities offer fully independent living with many amenities typically not available in a traditional apartment, such as housekeeping and foodservice. In addition, families have the security of knowing that assistance is available on-site for their loved ones in case it is ever needed. Best of all, residents enjoy the sense of belonging that stems from the incredible community spirit that is a part of every Good Neighbor Care location. |
Assisted Living ~
As needs change, the choices made early on can significantly decrease the stress and trauma involved in moving to a different community, changing familiar routines and changing staff. Good Neighbor Care offers a range of services in our Assisted Living Communities that can accommodate the changing levels of care residents may need.
As with all of our communities, a safe, secure and stimulating environment is key to the success of Good Neighbor Care. From housekeeping and carefully prepared, nutritious meals to administering medications and assisting in other day-to-day living activities, Good Neighbor Care is ready to serve. |
Memory Loss & Alzheimer’s ~
Good Neighbor Care Communities have been providing award-winning care to those stricken with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of memory loss for decades. We are unique because of our philosophy – to offer a specialized program of care designed to promote dignity and freedom of choice for our residents and to provide opportunities for growth and personal satisfaction for employees.
Central to this program is our building plan. Our non-institutional homes and residential settings are specifically designed to meet the unique needs of those with all forms of memory loss:
- Safe, secure environments that support freedom of choice for every resident.
- Homes and programs easily accommodate individual needs for such things as dining and sleeping habits that can vary from person to person.
- Each community provides the opportunity and specialized space for residents to spend time out of doors in safe, secure areas.
Providing meaningful and stimulating activities is part of our program. Activities take place in the homes, outdoors and on outings in the community as part of our regular program of care. |
Staffing is essential to Good Neighbor Care's success. We train our staff to meet each resident’s special and individual needs. We have many programs designed to help our employees grow in their ability to care for and understand our residents.
