Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC's) like Wesley Glen, Wesley Ridge and eventually Wesley Hills are campuses developed specifically for seniors with residential and health care options, and provides a variety of benefits, services and amenities. By moving to a CCRC, residents are deciding their own destiny. They decide, while in the prime of life, who will take care of them if and when health needs arise, as well as benefit from the socialization, safety and conveniences available in a CCRC.
Access to a variety of conveniences throughout the community makies life more enjoyable:
- On-site beauty and barber services
- Options for up to three meals per day in the various dining rooms offers nutritious meals. Also catering for special functions in private dining rooms is available

Some services include the completion of daily chores, simply making life easier:
