Question 1

What are some recent off-site events that the community activity director at Upside+ St. Petersburg has organized?

Accepted Answer

Upside+ Home Managers regularly organize meet-up events at our apartments and in the community for members who are interested. (No pressure!) We organize reservations to favorite local restaurants so Upside+ members can enjoy a meal and like-minded companionship. We get to know the interests of our members’ interests and curate activities, outings and events that cater to the way they want to spend time.

Question 2

Describe the overall population of independent living residents at Upside+ St. Petersburg. What is their average age? What are their favorite things to do?

Accepted Answer

Adults who choose Upside+ are generally 55+ and interested in an environment where they can live independently while getting in-home care, meals, light housekeeping, laundry service and access to amenities. They are looking for an alternative to traditional senior living where they may feel restricted. Many of our Upside+ members have family members who do not live in town, or their adult children are busy raising families and cannot provide the daily care needed to maintain a healthy lifestyle, mind and body. They appreciate that Upside+ is discreet – and they can choose a luxury apartment with all the amenities.
	Upside+ members have a range of interests, and their virtual personal concierge/care coordinator can arrange events, socials and outings. They can age gracefully in place and even explore new interests now that there is no burden of housekeeping, lawn care, cooking, errands and even walking the dog.

Question 3

What makes the chef or dining program at Upside+ St. Petersburg exceptional? What kind of menu can independent living residents expect?

Accepted Answer

Upside+ members can order gourmet meals to be delivered, or request grocery delivery service if they prefer to prepare their own dishes. Unlike a traditional dining hall, Upside+ membership offers options like meal preparation so you can have fresh, hot breakfast, lunch or dinner at home. There is no set menu, which is what our members love. And there is no meal plan schedule with monthly requirements. You choose. Plus, we can arrange for restaurant meal delivery so you can sit down to their favorites without leaving home.

Question 4

What common areas are available for independent living residents?

Accepted Answer

Traditional senior living often boxes residents into smaller apartments with the trade-off of common spaces like game rooms, cafeterias, and exercise facilities. At Upside+, we’re different. Your common area depends on the luxury apartment building you choose. Most of our homes offer courtyards with greenspace, walking paths, fitness facilities, clubhouses with common rooms and cafes, and swimming pools. All of them provide accessible parking, in-home laundry, modern appliances and finishes, and on-site security.

Question 5

What safety features or security measures does Upside+ St. Petersburg offer to independent living residents?

Accepted Answer

All Upside+ homes have updated security technologies, are pre-screened to be safe and have controlled access. The communities have on-site security either at night or full-time. Plus, our members have access to a Home Manager who can provide check-ins for peace of mind. Plus, with a certified nursing assistant (CNA) available eight hours a day, seven days a week, there’s the added support and peace of mind of a certified healthcare professional on site.

Question 6

Does Upside+ St. Petersburg work with an agency or registry to provide nursing and medical assistance as needed?

- Medication reminders
- Safety checks
- Escorts to meals/activities

Question 7

If Upside+ St. Petersburg accepts dogs or cats, what indoor/outdoor areas can they enjoy?

Accepted Answer

If you have a cat or dog, there are Upside+ homes that offer play spaces, walking paths, and even pet wash stations. If it’s pouring down rain and you don’t want to walk your dog, reach out to your Home Manager. We’ll take care of it. Upside+ offers free pet care with membership.

Question 8

What transportation services does Upside+ St. Petersburg offer to independent living residents?

Accepted Answer

Transportation packages allow you to ride for free with your Upside+ membership – and if you do not want to go out, you can get free grocery delivery, escorts to meals and activities, and personal shopping. Upside+ offers another layer of service and support on top of the general Upside membership.

Question 9

What places are nearby for independent living residents to enjoy?

Accepted Answer

Upside+ apartments are located in attractive communities across the country that offer close access to dining, entertainment, shopping, recreation, quality healthcare and conveniences like grocery stores. Many of our locations are centered around cultural activities, and all of them are near places of worship, libraries, museums and academic institutions. Our members are active and want to be a part of the greater community rather than associating only with a senior living campus, but they need the care support from a certified nursing assistant (CNA).
