Seven Hills also accepts private pay arrangements for these services and is committed to working with individuals and families to craft the model that works best for their needs.

What is Supportive Living?

Supportive living is a specialized residential care option for individuals who need assistance with daily activities but still wish to maintain their independence and community involvement. It provides a safe and supportive environment where personalized care and a sense of belonging are prioritized.

The main objective of supportive living is to improve the quality of life for those with physical disabilities, mental health conditions, or other challenges that hinder independent living. By offering a range of support services, our programs empower individuals to live life to the fullest and achieve their personal goals.

A standout feature of supportive living is its person-centered approach. Individualized care plans are developed based on each resident's unique needs, preferences, and goals. This personalized approach ensures that residents receive the necessary support while maintaining their autonomy and dignity.

The social and recreational activities provided, promote socialization and community engagement, which foster a sense of community among participants.

Supportive living encourages individuals to participate in decision-making about their care and daily routines, empowering them to take control of their lives. This autonomy enhances their overall well-being and quality of life.

Supportive living also promotes community integration by providing opportunities for residents to engage with neighbors and participate in local events. This connection helps individuals feel valued and enhances their sense of belonging.
