Here are 7 reasons why it can actually be a great idea to love to a retirement village!

Companionship – One of the most difficult parts of aging is spending much of your time feeling lonely, this is especially difficult if your life partner has passed away. A retirement village is a lovely place that can bring people together and allow exciting new friendships to form.

Safety & Security – Seniors are easy targets for scams as well as other crimes. Most retirement villages offer a highly secure residence that allows everyone to have complete peace of mind. At Pinelands Grove safety is a high priority that is why the village is fitted with CCTV cameras and 24 hour monitoring – take a look at the website to find out more www.pinelandsgrove.co.za

Less Maintenance – As we age cleaning and fixing things around the house can become extremely difficult, this is why moving to a retirement village can be a great idea. There are often cleaners and maintenance workers to relieve residents of any strenuous tasks.

Less Cooking – Cooking on a regular basis and maintaining a healthy diet can be difficult for most seniors, but eating correctly is a crucial part of aging well. A retirement village such as Pinelands Grove will feature food services such as healthy meal plans that are included in the overall costs.

Fun Activities – You don’t have to travel far to find fun things to do in a retirement community! Facilities can include a swimming pool, communal braai area, gaming room, library and a gym – learn new things, meet new people and have fun every day!

Healthcare – It is not uncommon for retirement villages to feature healthcare providers to assist seniors in the comfort of their own home. The Pinelands Grove healthcare centre is equipped with various rooms as well as surveillance and 24h professional carers who will make sure you are comfortable and safe at all times.

Peace & Quiet – Sometimes all you want is to get away from the hustle and bustle and have some peace and quiet. This is great when you’re living in a retirement village because everyone is basically at the same stage of life so there will be no loud parties or disrespectful behaviour from neighbours.
