In our independent living community, older adults find the support and help they need when everyday tasks become a challenge. Whether for long term Independent Living or a temporary stay, The Waterford has a solution for your needs.


Independent living

Ideal for seniors who seek a simpler, relaxing lifestyle and can live on their own without daily assistance. Leave chores like laundry, cooking and home maintenance to us while you engage in the passions you enjoy most and discover new ones!


Temporary stay

Sometimes called a respite care or rehab, temporary stay is available for seniors who need extra support and monitoring for a short period—such as recovering from a surgery or injury, or while a caregiver is away.


This is also a great way to see if a senior living community is right for you. You’ll stay in a spacious, private apartment and have access to all our community’s amenities and services throughout your stay.

Equal Pay Day marks the ongoing struggle for gender pay equity, highlighting the disparity between men's and women's earnings. Originating in the United States in 1996, the National Committee on Pay Equity established this observance to symbolize how far into the year women must work to earn what men earned in the previous year. Since its inception, Equal Pay Day has expanded globally, with various countries adopting their own dates to raise awareness and advocate for fair wages, addressing systemic biases and promoting policies that ensure equal pay for equal work.


Join with other women in our area to EMPOWER one another through knowledge! Learn more about the inequalities in pay and the workplace.
