C.C. Young’s residents, staff and continuing care retirement community distinguish it from other options in the area, says Kevin Maloney, Vice President of Hospitality.

“We have a new vision statement at C.C. Young: to enhance the quality of life for all we serve,” Maloney says.

Part of that enhancement comes from C.C. Young’s new Central Park outdoor area, along with a new assisted living dining and lobby area.

Since 1922, C.C. Young has been dedicated to helping seniors enjoy an active, fulfilling lifestyle and providing personalized care and support, Maloney says. Through collaboration with more than 40 area and national organizations, C.C. Young has enhanced its programs and services so that residents grow in body, mind and spirit, no matter their life circumstance or limitations.

“The most popular activities for residents include Southern Methodist University’s current affairs club, Wii Bowling and daily fitness programs,” Maloney says.

“A great way to see if C.C. Young is a good fit is to participate in activities at The Point, which offers memberships for residents and non-residents,” he says. Memberships include discounts for educational programs, computer classes, and free monthly art gallery shows.

Last year, C.C. Young launched its “Senior Thursdays” program, connecting its residents to activities, resources and offerings appropriate for them. Partners include the Nasher Sculpture Museum, Bass Performance Hall and Dallas Arboretum.

Another community partner, Doctors Hospital, also partners with C.C. Young to offer health and wellness classes throughout the year.

Autumn Leaves offers a warm, friendly and active community with a full range of retirement accommodations and service. In business for more than 45 years, Autumn Leaves boasts a trusted tradition of quality, with living residences in a scenic and serene environment overlooking Dallas jewel White Rock Lake, says Denise Lyman, Autumn Leaves Communications Representative.

Residents can enjoy the privacy of their own apartment or suite, or visit with newfound friends in the library or one of the many lounges and game rooms. Mealtimes offer a variety of delicious foods and friendly companionship, she says. There are also nondenominational services in the chapel, a beauty and barbershop, and even a gift shop.

Autumn Leaves offers a complete range of continuing healthcare services for seniors from independent and assisted living, to skilled and rehab nursing, which Lyman says is rated five stars by state and federal licensing agencies.

“Our staff, many of whom have been with Autumn Leaves for decades, provides top-notch services in a family-like environment,” Lyman says. “With experienced licensed nurses, advisory physicians, and physical, occupational and speech therapists, our staff offers individualized, personalized care to each valued resident.”

Autumn Leaves is managed by Life Care Services, a national leader in senior living, with decades of experience in health and wellness services for the senior community, Lyman says.

Planned bridge clubs, lectures, classes and other entertainment offers residents a multitude of activities and educational opportunities — not to mention holiday celebrations.
