Taylorville Estates Assisted Living remains dedicated to creating a space where individuals can find independence, an active lifestyle, and the comfort and freedom of living at home. Administrator, Toni Clark says only one room is currently available at Taylorville Estates and the cause of this can be found in the social living, daily activities, and relationships that are experienced in the assisted living arrangement.

Remodeling of the building is underway as residents have added their input into some of the painting decisions, and restructuring has been seen amongst the staff. Stephanie Pethtel has been named the Activities Director and has no shortage of ideas when it comes to getting everyone involved at Taylorville Estates.

Clark and Pathtel describe the importance of interaction and staying connected. Clark refers to the COVID-19 era and the downfalls that came to the residents during isolation.

Pethtel, Activities Director at Taylorville Estates has the creative freedom to draw up any game, sport, or adventure that excites the residents. From accessibility sports to Wine Wednesday and Beer and Pretzel Night, a community has been formed among those at Taylorville Estates.

Clark describes the apprehension of some individuals entering into assisted living. Clark and Pethtel described the quick and willing transition to the new living arrangements once they see what kind of active and social life they will be living.
