Retaining Optimal Health / Active Life-Style

 There are many studies in gerontological research, which show that adults who remain physically, mentally, and socially active, can significantly delay/lessen their decline in their physical and cognitive functioning abilities.  As one of the country’s leading/most complete retirement living destinations, Copeland Oaks offers a wide variety of activity opportunities to help residents remain active as long as possible.  In fact, I have personally witnessed numerous residents who, prior to their move to Copeland Oaks, were experiencing symptoms of depression, loneliness, fatigue, and worry.  After a few months of being around people and participating in many of our special and regularly scheduled activities and events, they did a complete transformation and developed a renewed sense of spirit and well-being.  It has been wonderful to see and a blessing to witness.  I have had numerous sons and daughters say to me how much their parent(s) mental, spiritual, and social health had improved after they moved Copeland Oaks.

 Copeland Oaks has a full-time Director of Wellness, who helps plan activities, events, and programs to help people stay fit longer, in comparison to not living at Copeland Oaks.  There are also close to FIFTY different groups/clubs for residents to participate in:

Having several dining venues close by, often helps people better meet their nutritional needs. 

In conclusion, people who move to Copeland Oaks while still independent, can not only increase their ability/chances of ‘remainingindependent longer throughout life, they can better increase their ability/chances of ‘retaining’ their physical and cognitive skills longer as well.
