ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- As loneliness and isolation can impact older adults across the country, Hillside Terrace is helping redefine what assisted living can look like by prioritizing social engagement, connection, and community for seniors in Ann Arbor.

Research has shown that chronic loneliness in seniors can contribute to serious health concerns, including heart disease, stroke, dementia, and depression. In response, senior living communities are increasingly recognizing that emotional and social wellness are just as important as physical care.

"Our residents are encouraged to stay socially active through a wide variety of community programs and events. From wellness classes and group outings to book clubs, guest lectures, and shared dining experiences, our community is designed to help seniors build friendships and maintain meaningful daily interactions," says Trey Litz, Director of Community Relations at Hillside Terrace.

"Our philosophy is centered around connection," said Trey Litz. "We want residents to feel like they are part of a supportive neighborhood where they can continue enjoying life, pursuing hobbies, and forming new relationships."

Staff members also work closely with new residents to help ease the transition into assisted living by facilitating introductions and encouraging participation in activities that match their interests.

Families often report seeing loved ones become more engaged and energized shortly after moving into the community. Having access to social opportunities, peer support, and a welcoming environment can significantly improve a senior's quality of life.
