An Introduction to MiLife Villages
Why Choose to live in a Retirement Village
An Introduction to MiLife Villages
If you value your independence but seek additional security, companionship and generally a more convenient lifestyle, then a MiLife Village is for you. Our villages offer a mix of one bedroom homes and two bedroom villas designed to ensure that you can live as independently as you please. These gorgeous homes provide you with ample living areas, a fully functional kitchen, bathroom and laundry facilities. Attractive neutral colours have been used throughout giving you the opportunity to add your own personal touches to make your unit "home".
In addition to your own private outdoor living space, the outdoor environments in all MiLife villages have been carefully planned, each village having an abundance of attractive outdoor areas, beautifully landscaped for your enjoyment.
In keeping with the MiLife philosophy of "Ageing in Place" we are able to access additional services as your needs change , this may be weekly housekeeping or a meal served daily, or may extend to additional support such as laundry services, shopping, and help with showering and dressing. We will assist you to identify the appropriate level of assistance, and from then on assist in arranging these services for you in your own home.
Why Live in a Retirement Village?
The collective experiences of our team at MiLife make us uniquely able to promote some of the main benefits that residents get from choosing a lifestyle retirement village. The first and most interesting issue for us is to uncover the chasm that exists between the sentiments of those considering this lifestyle and those who actively participate in this lifestyle! The most common sentiments from early visitors are:
-
We are not old enough but are just looking
We are not ready yet
We are not ready to give up our independence
We have to contrast these comments with the following positive experiences from residents:
- We wish we had made this move years ago!
-
We wish we had not waited so long!
-
We live as independently as we choose!
A discussion with a social worker reinforced our knowledge and experience, when they revealed, that as a result of our ability to continually reset and lower our expectations, we are not able to fully identify the level of isolation and loneliness that some of us feel at home. It is not until we move into a retirement village and gain the vast advantage linked to companionship and friendship that we actually realise what we were missing. It is this experience that makes residents of retirement villages acknowledge that they wish that they had made this move years ago!
And in addition to all that….
-
Security, freedom and independence
- An affordable quality home - see the specifications in the plans presenter
- Back-up support provides peace of mind
- Companionship and friendship
- Lots of activity if you choose
- An emergency call button at your finger tips with immediate response
- Additional services in the comfort of your own home if you require
- A community centre designed to meet your expectations
- Helpful staff always keen to ‘Surprise and Delight’ – our minimum service standard
- AND – being part of MiLife group of villages
