Bridgewater Park

Just south of Candler Hills Golf Club, rests Bridgewater Park, a senior living community that offers independent living, assisted living, respite care, and memory care. The cost of assisted living begins at $3,200 per month. This is on par with the $3,275 average in Ocala, FL. Living residences offered at this retirement community include a choice of one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments. Living spaces come with a private bathroom, kitchenette, balcony or patio, living room, and laundry appliances. Major utilities are included in the monthly fees, and there is no long term commitment. All residents enjoy chef-prepared meals, restaurant-style dining, a social calendar, building maintenance, groundskeeping, weekly housekeeping and linen services, wellness programs, and 24-hour staffing.

Independent living residents enjoy an active lifestyle without the worries of home maintenance. Residents of the assisted living community receive additional care services, including assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing, grooming, and dressing. Seniors in the memory care community are given an enhanced level of care that focuses on the struggles of dementia. Amenities offered at this senior living community include a patio, coffee shop, fitness center, a billiards room, physical therapy room, beauty salon and barber shop, a private dining room, and well-appointed common areas. There are several stores, restaurants, health care facilities, and parks located close to the property. The YMCA of Central Florida has several locations nearby, including one in Ocala, FL, offering swimming pools and fitness programs. Bridgewater Park provides the care services that residents need to maintain their independence.
