5 Reasons Why Shipley Living is Perfect for You!

Step onto the campus of Shipley Living, and you’re sure to experience why our community is so special. Loving care is at the heart of it all! For over 40 years we’ve been making seniors feel right at home, and our approach to retirement living has been strengthened by our management partnership with Life Care Services®, An LCS® Company, which was ranked highest in customer satisfaction for all independent senior living communities four years in a row in the J.D. Power U.S. Senior Living Satisfaction Study. Here are five reasons why Shipley Living just might be the perfect place for you!

1) We Have Beautifully Updated Spaces.

You’re going to love our impeccably updated common spaces. Our designers are giving Shipley Living a fresh look with a new roof and exterior paint and a new porte-cochere that will provide an attractive covered entrance offering protection from the elements. We’re also reimagining our reception area and brightening the community throughout with gorgeous new paint, lighting, and décor.

2) We’re a Continuing Care Retirement Community.

As a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), we offer carefree, maintenance free independent living, with advanced levels of care—including assisted living, long-term skilled nursing care, and inpatient and outpatient short-term rehabilitation—always available right on campus. This gives you the peace of mind of knowing your needs will always be met in a familiar place surrounded by a caring team you know and trust.

3) We’re a Rental Community.

At Shipley Living, you get all the advantages of a Continuing Care Retirement Community for a simple monthly rental fee. There’s never a savings-draining, upfront buy-in, and that gives you the kind of financial flexibility and freedom you want.

4) You’ll Love Our Location.

Nestled in a thriving neighborhood close to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment, Shipley Living is the perfect place to live your very best life. A variety of public parks, Wilmington’s beautiful waterfront, an array of cultural attractions, and some of the city’s finest medical centers are all just a short drive away.

5) You Can Leave the Cooking to Us.

Seven days a week we’re serving breakfast, lunch and dinner from a delicious chef-inspired menu of fresh, seasonal selections prepared with just the right touch of loving care by our expert culinary staff. At Shipley Living, dining is more than just a meal. It’s another way of fostering community, connection, and celebration.
