About Life At Harmony

Admissions

Understanding the difficulties that bring residents to us do not happen on a convenient 9 to 5 schedule, we are able to accommodate and admit residents 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Whenever they arrive, they will be met by a caring, attentive staff that respects their privacy, cares about their well-being and is dedicated to their dignity.

Activities

By involving residents in a variety of activities that infuse art, music, movies, gardening and visits from pet friends with intergenerational experiences, Harmony’s Activities Department not only keeps residents happy and involved throughout the day, but helps foster a sense of community that dramatically contributes to their ultimate recovery. Take a look at the activities offered during a typical month.

Visits

We view the social interaction of visits from family and friends as an integral part of a resident’s recovery. We have a private dining room families can reserve for special occasions. The manicured courtyards of our lushly landscaped 5-acre property also makes an ideal place for getting together with visitors. Visiting hours are from 8 to 8 though special arrangements can be made to accommodate work and family demands.

Spiritual Needs

Healing involves the spirit as well as the body. To achieve that harmony, we offer religious and spiritual activities for our residents. However, we are an ecumenical institution and so we strive to serve the needs of each individual resident.

Counseling for Families

We understand that when one member of a family experiences an illness or accident for which they need care it affects the whole family. To help mitigate the stress, Harmony counselors and nurses are always available to answer questions and assist families in whatever ways possible, including counseling and therapy.

Meals

Residents enjoy three delicious and nutritious meals a days, prepared by our chefs and nutritionist according to the specific dietary needs and preferences of patients, in the welcoming environment of our newly decorated dining rooms, where seating arrangements are managed so as to encourage friendships and support. There is also a private dining room available for special family events. Contact us to make arrangements. Of course, snacks are served throughout the day. See what a typical day’s menu offers.

In Case of Emergency

In the event of a serious medical emergency, we are less than 2 miles from Sarasota Memorial Hospital, recognized in numerous surveys as one of America’s best and safest hospitals and less than 4 miles from Doctors Hospital, whose emergency room services have been voted among the best in the nation.
