Planning your retirement? Moving to a retirement village can provide you with both convenience and peace of mind. Living in a friendly community allows you to discover new hobbies and passions along with improving social ties. If you’re planning to move to a retirement village on the Mornington Peninsula, it’s a good idea to set your expectations for a smoother, easier transition.

Here are a few things to expect from retirement living.

1. A new environment to explore and be familiar with

This comes par for the course: moving into a retirement home means taking the time to familiarise yourself with your new space. To help with this transition, you may want to plan out in advance which personal possessions you’ll take with you and which ones you can donate or give away.

Rest assured, here at Village Glen, we offer a range of apartments and villas varying in sizes and lifestyles, each designed with your ease and comfort in mind. You’ll experie a high-quality life in a first-class property that meets your living requirement.

2. A range of activities and programmes to be involved in

Retirement villages not only provide you with a comfortable place to live, but also offer the chance to enhance your health and well-being. This includes taking care of your physical health as well as providing avenues that tend to your social, emotional and mental needs too.

Village Glen offers a variety of facilities and programmes designed to enhance our residents’ quality of life. Residents can enjoy plenty of activities that both occupy their time and provide them with a renewed sense of purpose. Our programs also provide residents a chance to strike up new friendships and decrease feelings of isolation.

3. Access to 24/7 quality healthcare services

Peace of mind comes from the assurance that you’ll be cared for once at the retirement village, with your safety and comfort as the top-most priority. Here at Village Glen, we offer this and more, as our team of skilled nurses and health professionals are always on hand to assist you.

All our residents are given an emergency call system, and our team will respond to medical emergencies no matter the hour and day.

Aside from the 24/7 emergency response, we also have specialised therapists and healthcare professionals on hand to give you the proper support as necessary.
