Essington Place simplifies Joliet retirement


May 5, 2008

Essington Place Independent Retirement Community provides a simplified retirement with more freedom than you can imagine.

Located in Joliet amid a pristine garden, Essington Place is ideally positioned for picturesque afternoon or evening strolls and is conveniently located next to Joliet Public Library and Harris Bank. The community is near shopping; casinos; museums; a host of outdoor recreational opportunities including NASCAR and drag racing; and numerous medical amenities, from hospitals to clinics.

Newcomers are welcomed into Essington Place with a warm sense of family and friendship.

Committed staff

 

Two live-in management teams are accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week, providing a stable and caring environment and offering great comfort to residents and their families.

Most importantly, they take the time to get to know each resident on a personal level. When serving coffee at meals, they find out who has a new grandchild, who is planning a vacation or who has a burned-out light bulb.

Award-winning chefs artfully prepare three healthy meals made from scratch each day, served restaurant style by personable dining staff. The weekly housekeeping and skilled maintenance staff allow you the luxury of stress-free living.

Your in-house beauty and barber shop and complimentary, scheduled; local transportation to appointments; and outings take convenience to the next level.

Resident enrichment coordinators organize a full calendar of invigorating, engaging activities; there is something unique for everyone. Why not spend your retirement having fun with a little aerobics, bean bag baseball, the latest Wii video games, shooting some pool, reading, dancing, laughing, playing, and relaxing? Essington Place has it all.

The exclusive Holiday Retirement travel program allows you to feel at home while vacationing. Residents can arrange to stay up to one week at a time at any of the over 250 participating Holiday Retirement properties throughout North America, upon the availability of a guestroom. While there, guests will receive the same quality chef-prepared meals, local transportation and service you receive at home, free of charge (exceptions apply in Hawaii).

Pet- and people-friendly

 

Essington Place knows people love pets and understands they are an important part of the family. Their pet-friendly policies allow four-legged loved ones to live with their owners in their suite.

Studios, one- and two-bedroom suites are available at Essington Place, with nearly countless floor plans.

Each floor plan features kitchenettes and the following amenities: climate control or thermostat; air conditioning; paid utilities (except phone); private telephone line; walk-in or wheel-in shower; private courtyard, patio or balcony; wheelchair accessible, personalized living space; smoking accommodations; emergency in-room call system; and a personal locked mailbox.

Residents are getting more out of retirement than ever before at Essington Place. With 111 neighbors, it is likely several friends will share similar interests and enrich one another's lives. With no buy-in fees or long-term leases, residents maintain control of their own finances, so living this gracious and carefree lifestyle becomes remarkably easy.

Essington Place's unsurpassed employees are the heart of their community, and they are available to serve you.

The entire focus is on indulging their residents in a physically, emotionally and mentally enriching lifestyle. Dedicated to providing a refreshing and worry-free lifestyle for their family of residents, Essington Place extends every effort to ensure the lives of their seniors are rewarding. Essington Place is retirement, simplified.
