When people discuss senior living communities in Macomb, the discussion typically centers on necessary features such as assistance with daily activities or healthcare services or simplified living. Nevertheless, there is another facet to community living which people tend to overlook: the hidden advantages which affect the quality of life in ways that cannot be easily measured but are deeply appreciated. At Oakleigh of Macomb, we consider that senior living is not only the fulfillment of needs but also the development of happiness, relationships, autonomy, and tranquillity.
In this blog, we shall move beyond the fundamentals and highlight some of the less apparent yet important advantages of living in a senior living community like ours.

At Oakleigh, we’ve seen how life blossoms when residents no longer feel isolated. Loneliness is bad for the health of the body and the mind, but at our residents’ community friendships are made easily: over a meal in the restaurant, during a themed dinner, or just chatting over coffee in the courtyard.
No matter what your interest is, whether it is in a community book club, live musical performance, or group fitness class, there is always something to do with people who have similar interests.
