A personal care community for older adults who need help with daily activities
At Southminster Place, we offer the extra support that promotes good daily health and engaging experiences. We recognize that every person we serve is an individual with a unique story that is based on his or her experiences. We get to know our residents in order to build the connections that foster a continued sense of purpose and independence. As assistance is needed, our expert team members are ready to help with bathing, dressing, medication monitoring, meals, laundry, housekeeping and more.
Our commitment to person-centered care means that you have the freedom to make your own schedule. You help determine when to get up or go to bed, what to eat and when.
We offer:
- An atmosphere of dignity, independence and choice
- Medication monitoring
- Help with personal hygiene and grooming
- Dining services
- Housekeeping and laundry

Floor Plans
We offer standard and deluxe studios and a variety of one-bedroom apartments. A lovely common area called the “Nook” features a cozy corner fireplace, bookshelves filled with reading materials, and a computer for keeping in touch with friends. The Nook is a great place for residents and families to meet and socialize.

Dining
In partnership with culinary experts Cura Hospitality, we serve three fresh and nutritious meals daily. We offer both casual and formal dining experiences as well as theme nights, heart-healthy entrees, and locally sourced fruits, vegetables, breads, and baked goods.
Residents have a choice of two entrée choices at every meal served restaurant-style. Or residents can opt to have meals delivered to their residences.
We can accommodate special diets and encourage families to join us for holiday feasts.
