We toured and visited nine retirement communities! Harwood Place was the best fit for us.

It can be hard to start conversations around senior living, but it’s an important discussion to have.

Then, you can discuss the benefits of senior living and how it could help your loved one live a better life. Explain how a senior living community like Harwood Place will support their independence and quality of life. You could even suggest setting up a tour so they can see what the lifestyle is like firsthand; showing them the different amenities, services, and social activities will help them visualize what it would be like to be part of the community.
No matter what, your loved one deserves the chance to share their feelings, be heard, and, if you do decide to move forward with senior living, find a community that fits their needs. At Harwood Place, we are here to support you. Give us a call today at (414) 256-6814 to learn more.
