"Aging is a complex journey, but we are dedicated to caring for our residents and their families at every step of the way in a beautiful and supportive new home." - Monarch Communities CEO Michael Glynn. Monarch Communities currently operates six, unique living communities around the Northeast, with locations in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts. Each is designed to promote wellness while providing holistic care and supporting diversity with technology and programming that foster connections. Their newest community, The Current Weymouth, provides a true "neighborhood" feel with dynamic settings. "Our vision is that the daily, weekly and monthly rhythms of The Current are as vibrant and varied as the rest of the South Shore," says Glynn. THE CURRENT WEYMOUTH: THE AMAZING JOURNEY OF AGING Written by Robin Young, photography by Brian Doherty & Nigel Barker The talented and committed staff is unified in the belief that engagement and wellness are the keys to truly living, and the building itself fosters that mentality. From the sensory garden and spa to the restaurants and even a pub, The Current promotes a lifestyle filled with meaningful connections and fulfilling activities. Made possible by their personalized approach, The Current offers the full continuum of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory care and respite care, allowing residents to enjoy the security of being able to stay in one place as they age and their needs change. The Current has a skilled culinary team and four dining venues, catering to both the tastes and dietary requirements of residents. Meals are designed to nourish, but also to be enjoyed in the company of friends while sharing meaningful conversations and creating memories in a spirited atmosphere. Every morning, residents enjoy breakfast and coffee, followed by peaceful walks in the serenity of their gardens, workouts in the fitness area or other activities of interest. After lunch, they are encouraged to partake in leisure and learning activities like hobby groups and time in the library. Evenings are complete with gourmet dinners followed by movie or game nights or simply the relaxation and privacy of their own apartment space. 6
