Monarch Landing to Host Groundbreaking of Health Center
In fulfillment of its promise to provide complete continuing care for seniors, Monarch Landing will break ground on its health center on April 9th, 2013. Monarch Landing, a senior retirement community in Naperville, introduced its independent living apartments for individuals ages 62 and over six years ago. The health center will include assisted living, memory support, rehabilitation and skilled nursing services.
The addition to Monarch Landing which was designed by Perkins Eastman Architects will consist of 96 skilled nursing apartments in eight households of 16 units each and 28 assisted living/memory support apartment in two households of 14. Both will be attached to Monarch Landing's independent living apartments through common areas, and will include a department for physical, occupational and speech therapy, a beauty shop and a bistro.
Renee Garvin, executive director of Monarch Landing said that she is pleased to be able to proceed with the project which will deliver health care services to seniors in a unique, homelike and dignified manner. “Our goal is to enable residents to remain at home on the Monarch Landing campus, even when additional care is needed. The addition has been designed to be warm and welcoming. Every household has its own country kitchen and living room for socialization,” she said.
Naperville Mayor A. George Pradel who has been a staunch supporter of Monarch Landing and its commitment to providing continuing care will speak at the groundbreaking event, along with Warrenville Mayor Brummel. The event will include a reception.
