The iBirkshares.com web site reports that Kimball Farms is celebrating its twentieth anniversary of continuous service. The continuing care retirement community located in Lenox Massachusetts. Here’s an excerpt from the article:
While there have been other Lifecare communities established in the United States previous to inception of the Kimball Farms Lifecare model, it is the first Lifecare community in Berkshire County offering residents a unique and independent lifestyle while covering their long term health care needs. Kimball Farms is now the only Lifecare community in Western Massachusetts.
As the needs of the population have changed, Kimball Farms has evolved to better serve the community. In May, 2000, PineHill Assisted Living was added to the footprint of Kimball Farms on its Walker Street campus. PineHill consists of 48 apartments and offers 24-hour services for those needing help with daily living. In 2002, the long-term care services, Kimball Farms Nursing Care Center, was relocated into the vacated Edgecomb Nursing Home on Sunset Street in Lenox. The entire facility was renovated to increase its capacity from 41 to 74 beds.
Kimball Farms continues to add services providing an even more active and social atmosphere, particularly for aging baby-boomers who expect such amenities. Kimball will soon open the “Pleasant Pheasant Pub and Lounge,” which will offer residents an additional dining option with space for socializing and relaxation.
