The American Journal of Preventive Medicine indicates that sitting for extended periods of time can increase the development likelihood of chronic conditions like Type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, both of which can be exacerbated by family medical history. When seated, one burns fewer calories than while standing or moving, and muscles tend to deteriorate. Sitting can also lead to lifestyle changes that encourage obesity and heart disease.

The Village staff encourages residents to avoid prolonged sitting and helps them to increase the amount of moderate or vigorous exercise involved in each day by creating activities, day trips and entertainment. Residents can get out and enjoy the summer weather and be greeted by excellent, healthy meals and a refreshing dip in the indoor pool upon return. The Village offers a scale of care that suits the needs of seniors who enjoy an independent life with minimal care to those who require close attention and specific, memory or health related assistance. All residents are welcome to sit along the veranda and enjoy the waterway view in the sunshine as the live music from nearby drifts on the summer breeze.
