Making the move from independent living to an environment with more assistance is a significant and often emotional step. At Cannon Country Senior Living, we deeply understand these challenges and strive to make the transition easier for our residents and their families. Central to this commitment is our unique approach: offering the comfort and familiarity of a real home. Rather than the overwhelming and impersonal atmosphere of a large institutional setting, we take pride in offering genuine homes, that are warm and inviting and located in a quiet and safe residential neighborhood.
Our senior living homes are a refreshing divergence from conventional senior housing. You won’t find endless hallways, cumbersome elevators, or daunting staircases here. Instead, we’ve designed our unique facilities with comfort, accessibility and ease of use in mind. For instance, our dining room is mere feet away from each resident’s suite. And our wheelchair-friendly parking is just a short, safe distance from our welcoming main entrance.
At Cannon Country Senior Living, residents aren’t just another number. They are cherished members of our community, deserving of dignity, respect, and the very best in care. Our superior staff-to-resident ratio, coupled with our authentic home-based cares approach allows us to deliver the essential care that you or your loved one needs in an environment that truly feels like their home away from home.
Our homes are purposefully crafted for assisted living. Each home includes five distinct senior living apartments, each seamlessly connected to common spaces, fostering privacy, access to care and a sense of community. Imagine a place where residents can enjoy the autonomy of their spacious three-room suite — comprising a master bedroom, expansive living area, and accessible master bathroom — and yet, step out to mingle, dine, or engage in activities in our common areas, including kitchen, dining area, and living room.

At Cannon Country, our Clinical Nurse Supervisor is Theresa Benda, RN. From the moment you join our community, Theresa seamlessly integrates into your healthcare journey, collaborating closely with your physicians to enhance your overall well-being and comfort. Rather than simply reacting to health concerns as they arise, Theresa takes a proactive stance. With her deep understanding of geriatric care, she often catches subtle changes in a resident’s physical or emotional states that might otherwise go unnoticed. For instance, recognizing early signs of dehydration, mood shifts that could indicate a medication imbalance, or even spotting the beginnings of a pressure sore. By addressing these early, she not only prevents bigger health issues but also ensures residents’ continuous comfort. She diligently tracks every resident’s ailments and medical conditions, promptly updates their doctors on any emerging concerns, and works closely with their medical team to identify and schedule optimal treatments or medication adjustments. Her goal? To ensure not just the best health outcomes, but also a richer, fulfilling, and happier life for each resident at Cannon Country.
Also, continuity of care is vital for seniors. With Theresa’s hands-on approach, residents don’t face the unsettling experience of constantly changing medical personnel. They build trust with her, knowing that their health is monitored by someone familiar who truly understands their unique needs and history.
Theresa also works closely with families, keeping them informed and offering guidance on how they can contribute to their loved one’s well-being. Families often express their peace of mind knowing that such a diligent and compassionate RN is part of their loved one’s care team.
