Assisted Living

An inspired approach to assisted living

We work hard to make each resident at CopperWood at Praire Trail feel as independent and self-sufficient as they did before they left home. We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, assisted living at CopperWood is an ongoing collaboration based on the things that really matter. The result ensures an independent and fulfilling lifestyle enveloped in support, connection to nature, and a wellness-focused culture.

Created for connection with people and nature

Biophilic design is a fancy term for environments that help people feel connected to nature. This connection to the natural world has been proven to improve emotional wellness and is one reason why CopperWood at Praire Trail feels different from other communities in the area. 

Large windows flood the community with natural light and afford a view of our beautifully landscaped grounds. If you or someone you love has a green thumb, our resident gardens and greenhouse will provide countless opportunities to indulge this passion for planting! 

Inviting, comfortable indoor and outdoor social areas and dining venues throughout the community provide ample opportunity to connect with others. Residents savor fresh, gourmet meals daily in an environment that makes dining together fun and satisfying.

Activities that invigorate

Dynamic life-enrichment classes and intergenerational activities keep minds active and growing. And performances and movies in our CopperWood Theater keep hearts light and spirits high. 

Our Wellness Center includes state-of-the-art exercise equipment specially designed for older adults. Exercise classes created in conjunction with physical therapy leader Symbria aim to improve balance and strengthen the muscles that help prevent falls and other injuries. It’s a wellness-focused culture that enables individuals to follow their interests and live a fun, fulfilling life they love!
