A Banyan Residence Assisted Living Resort

| March 11, 2015 9:00 PM

Discover a hidden gem on Venice Island that offers seniors a wonderful lifestyle, peace of mind, and compassionate care, all within a serene, tropical environment. Since fresh air and outdoor living can have a beneficial effect on residents and their health, A Banyan Residence, a Timeless Life Care community, was designed and is meticulously maintained to produce an atmosphere that is an oasis for the senses.

The gorgeous orchid and botanical gardens are a sight to behold, with rainbow-hued colors and lovely fragrances that fill the air. 

A walking path winds through a lush landscape filled with a variety of fruit trees, inviting a peaceful stroll. Magnificently spacious gazebos with soft, vividly colored cushioned benches offer shade and comfort, as overhead fans create a refreshing breeze.

Residents and visitors can enjoy the serenity of a duck pond, as well as the beautiful Japanese koi displaying amazing shades of gold, orange and black as they gently swim through the pristine waters. Nearby fountains, featuring gently trickling water, create a soothing ambiance, as a myriad of butterflies adds to the beautiful atmosphere. Those with a green thumb may want to roll up their sleeves to tend to the tomatoes, lettuce, and peppers in the vegetable garden that are used in the kitchen for amazingly fresh meals.

The earth-friendly environment extends to the residences, which creates a lovely sense of flow connecting each suite to the stunning gardens. Just outside their doors, residents and their friends and family can take in views of the extraordinary surroundings from their own porches. Fully furnished rooms are available or individuals may personalize their space with their own possessions. A separate resort is available for those who need a higher degree of personal care.

As Director of Community Relations Chris Snider explains, “The goal of A Banyan Residence is to provide Timeless Life Care in an aging-in-place facility. We are dedicated to promoting the well-being of each resident and helping them to maintain their independence in a safe, secure environment.”

Providing a pleasurable dining experience is an important part of that commitment. In the resort-style dining area, 20-foot high ceilings and large picture windows that overlook the pond, waterfall and grounds establish a bright, open feel. Deliciously fresh ingredients are used in preparing the meals, with the menu carefully crafted by a licensed dietician. To ensure that residents’ individual dietary needs are satisfied, personalized meal plans are easily accommodated.

Since a key objective of A Banyan Residence is to empower its residents, a comprehensive personal enrichment program is offered, as are opportunities to form meaningful social connections. Regularly scheduled events, activities and outings include daily exercise in the gazebo, aromatherapy, barbecues every Saturday with family and friends, live music, and other excursions. A shuttle bus takes adventurers to local attractions such as Mote Marine, the movies and the North Jetty for lunch.

Maintaining communication between residents and their family members can provide greater peace of mind. By logging on to a private, secured website, out-of-town and local family members can access cameras positioned around the property so they may discover what their loved ones are doing each day. Onsite, a stateof-the-art computer and video camera allows residents the ability to connect with family and friends through Skype sessions.

At A Banyan Residence, you will find excellent quality of care, a rich social environment, and a compassionate, caring staff, all in a beautifully serene community.

A Banyan Residence Assisted Living Resort is located at 100 Base Avenue East in Venice.
