Winter brings its own charm—snow-covered landscapes, cozy nights by the fireplace, and holiday festivities. But for many older adults, winter can also mean icy sidewalks, hazardous driving conditions, and the worry of home maintenance during unpredictable weather.
If you or someone you love is grappling with these challenges, there's no better time to consider the benefits of moving into a senior living community. Here's how making the move now could enhance your safety, well-being, and overall quality of life.
- Enhanced Safety and Security
Say goodbye to shoveling snow, de-icing walkways, or worrying about slippery driveways. Winter poses safety risks, but a senior living community makes those concerns a thing of the past. For instance, at The Lafayette, a Redeemer Senior Living community for active adults age 62+, our team takes care of snow removal and keeps outdoor areas well-maintained. Plus, with 24/7 responsive staff on-site, help is always available if you need it. Living at The Lafayette means feeling secure and supported, no matter the season.
- Stress-Free Local Travel—No Matter the Weather
Driving on icy roads or in snow can be stressful at any age. But what if you didn’t have to? The Lafayette offers scheduled transportation services to help you get to nearby shopping centers and medical appointments. “Whether it’s a trip to the grocery store or a nearby doctor’s office, you can leave the hassle of winter driving—and scraping icy windshields—behind. We’ll take care of getting you where you need to go, so you can focus on enjoying your day,” says Nicole Rosella, Director of Sales.
- Health and Wellness Opportunities
Winter shouldn’t mean staying cooped up indoors with limited options for staying active. When you move into The Lafayette, access to health and wellness services is just steps away. From on-site health care to group fitness classes, yoga sessions, and wellness programs tailored to older adults, you’ll have everything you need to nurture your well-being. Staying active and healthy has never been easier. And when you feel your best physically, it feels easier to enjoy every moment.
- Support, Comfort, and Connection
Winter can sometimes feel isolating, especially if cold weather keeps you homebound. But life in a senior living community is anything but lonely. “The Lafayette is a place where you’ll become part of a vibrant, welcoming community. From engaging events and workshops to hobby groups and movie nights, there’s always something fun happening. Even better, you’ll meet wonderful, like-minded people who become both friends and family,” says Nicole.
- Exclusive Seasonal Specials
If you’re considering making a move, now might be the perfect time for seasonal price savings! Many senior living communities, including The Lafayette, offer unique incentives and financial benefits during this time of year. These savings are only available for a limited time and make your transition easier than ever. “Right now, if you sign your lease and begin paying rent by December 31, 2024 you’ll benefit from your 1st and 13th months FREE, plus significant savings on the community fee,” says Nicole. "You don’t even need to move in right away. By acting now, you’ll be able to choose the move-in date that works best for you," she adds.

Moving into a senior living community during the winter means unlocking a life of connection, convenience, and safety.
