Living with a chronic condition like heart disease, arthritis, or diabetes doesn’t have to hold you, or your loved one, back from living a vibrant, fulfilling life. In fact, it can be the very reason to embrace a lifestyle that supports your health and happiness – every single day.
At Senior Star, we believe that aging well means living well. Our communities are designed to take the stress out of managing chronic conditions so residents can focus on what matters most: feeling good, connecting with others, and finding joy in the moments that make each day special.
Why Seniors Thrive in a Supportive Community
You don’t have to do it all alone. Research shows that older adults in senior living communities experience better overall health and fewer hospitalizations than those who remain living at home.
That’s because communities like Senior Star make it easier to:
- Stay active through guided wellness programs
- Eat well with balanced, flavorful meals
- Monitor health in partnership with trained associates
- Enjoy friendship, purpose, and emotional support
Our approach is centered around the Seven Areas of Wellness – a whole-person philosophy that nurtures mind, body, and spirit. From chef-prepared dining and movement programs to creative expression and purpose-filled engagement, we make wellness feel approachable, empowering, and fun.
What Makes Senior Star Different?
When you walk into a Senior Star community, you’ll notice something right away – the energy. It’s lively, positive, and full of possibility. Here’s how we’re redefining what it means to live well with chronic conditions:
Personalized Wellness That Fits You
No two people are alike – and neither are their wellness journeys. Our team works with each resident (and family) to create a personalized plan that supports specific health goals while encouraging independence and confidence.
Residents enjoy movement programs like Rock Steady Boxing (for those with Parkinson’s), Zumba Gold®, and Tai Chi, plus wellness tracking that keeps progress visible and motivation high.
For family members, it’s comforting to know that a team of trained professionals is helping their loved one stay active, engaged, and supported each day.
Dining That’s Smart, Social and Delicious
Good health begins with great food, and at Senior Star, nutrition is served with creativity and care. Our Signature Dining programs, including Anytime Dining, multiple dining venues, and the Red Plate Program (in Memory Care), offer delicious, chef-inspired meals tailored to promote heart health, balance blood sugar, and boost energy.
It’s freedom with flavor, and a dining experience that brings residents, families, and even visitors together around the table.
Technology That Inspires Connection
At Senior Star, technology isn’t cold or clinical – it’s joyful and engaging.
- Senso Think & Move® brings movement and cognitive exercise together in ways that make staying active feel like play.
- Lucynt Interactive Tables encourage creativity and social connection with light-based games that promote coordination and laughter.
- Sagely Family App keeps residents and loved ones connected through a private digital platform that shares community updates, event calendars, and photos from daily life.
Together, these tools support what matters most: helping residents live with purpose, joy, and confidence while giving families and professionals peace of mind.
Purposeful Living, Every Day
From Laughter Yoga and Drums Alive to Resident Ambassador programs and Senior Star Adventures, there’s something at Senior Star for every interest, personality, and passion. These aren’t just activities – they’re opportunities for friendship, movement, and meaning.
“We see every resident as a whole person, not a diagnosis,” says Dionne Nicol, Executive Director at Senior Star at Dublin Retirement Village. “We focus on what’s possible, not what’s limiting – and that makes all the difference.”
