Description

About This Community

Upsize your possibilities and experiment with new hobbies, re-ignite your sense of purpose and enjoy new experiences and connections with interesting new friends.

At our continuing care retirement community (CCRC), you’ll have independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all on one campus. That means if you or your spouse needs more care later, you have the lifestyle you want, plus the care you need.

Maybe you’ll want to join a game of mahjong, or check out a woodworking class on campus. Here, you can. We’ll take care of housekeeping and lawn maintenance while you focus on what you want to do. Need a little inspiration? Check out some of these possibilities:

  • Water volleyball
  • Art classes
  • Fitness classes
  • Foreign language classes (like Spanish and French)
  • Acrylic painting lessons
  • Coffee socials
  • Trips into downtown
  • Themed parties and happy hours
  • Gospel singing and live concerts

It’s maintenance-free living at it’s best. And that’s just a few of the activities on campus. You can head off campus to do a little shopping or visit the historic town of Punta Gorda and the Port Charlotte area.

And with a dozen floor plans to choose from, including studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, luxury retirement living comes with plenty of choices for your next home. Here are just a few of the features you’ll enjoy here:

  • Basic utilities and maintenance are included—fewer bills mean fewer worries.
  • Private lanai available for select floor plans
  • Plenty of natural window light
  • Full-size kitchens with updated appliances available
  • Pet-friendly
  • Lots of storage
  • Freedom to make it your own?

For your peace of mind, there is staff on site 24 hours a day, seven days a week to be alerted to an emergency. And when it comes to last-minute maintenance issues, we’ve got that covered.

With our continuum of care options, you’ll be prepared with the care you might need down the road. If you need skilled nursing care while recovering from surgery, no problem. Need an extra hand with daily activities like medication management or dressing? We’ve got that, too.

That means you won’t have to change communities again, even if you or your spouse need more care later. You’ll be able to stay together, on the same campus close to friends, enjoying the same lifestyle in the community you already love.

Our Alzheimer's and dementia care community, also known as Clare Bridge, is rooted in “a person-centered approach”. That means we help our residents find a sense of belonging and purpose while also helping them preserve who they are.

Did you know our community offers both rental and Life Care options?

  • For the rental CCRC option, you pay a monthly rental fee based on the level of care and services you need— with no buy-in fee. That means you or a loved one move into whatever level of care you need—for instance, assisted living or skilled nursing.
  • For the Life Care program, you’ve got two costs to consider, and even more financial gains. Let’s start with the upfront buy-in fee. The amount of the fee depends on your floor plan, services, and the Life Care contract you choose. It’s the buy-in fee that makes the Life Care guarantee possible.* The other cost is the monthly service fee, which is based on the type of accommodations and your level of care.
  • With our Life Care option, you can make your assets last longer with substantial health, financial and lifestyle benefits. And you get our care for life guarantee*. This unique benefit guarantees that even if your financial resources are eventually exhausted due to no fault of your own you’ll still have the care you need.*

Whether you choose a rental or Life Care option, our community has the lifestyle you want and the care you need.

The Life Care guarantee is subject to the terms and conditions of the Residency Contract.

The team in the skilled nursing , takes Covid very serious . They make sure my loved one was taken care of. They tested (and still testing) employees and Patients to keep my loved one safe, I received calls on how things are going. If something happened I would send my loved one to Harbour Health Care again. THANK YOU ALL FOR ALL YOU DO ! Activities were on hold for covid , someone came in and face timed with us .

My mother-in-law did end up having to go to South Port Square for rehab. They did not take very good care of her there. She went in on a Monday and it was Thursday before they even got her pain meds ordered for her. I would never ever send anybody there again.

My husband was there at South Port Square from about the end of January through June and he was in an assisted living apartment for one month, but the rest of the time he was in skilled nursing. They definitely were an excellent facility. It was just that they were so far from my home, and I was driving about 54 miles every day. It was inconvenient. I thought their medical care was excellent, and the staff was very good. He didn't care for the food, although it was much better on the third floor than it was in skilled nursing. They were extremely expensive. They ought to do a better job of explaining exactly what the charges are because I did not know that the price they gave me was going to be raised. They had a lot of things to do, but he never really got into activities because he was too ill. It ranged up to as much as $9,000 a month, but that included all the personal service things. Overall, it's a really well-run and excellent facility.

I am disgusted with the lack of respect and hospitality with this place! My grandmother is part of the memory care unit and when we had visited her, she needed help going to the bathroom, so when I went to get a nurse to help her, she began to make derogatory comments about my grandmother in front of me!! Worst is the other nurses began to giggle, even the supposedly LPN in charge Doris. When I asked to see the nurses nametag who made the comment she refused to provide her identity and turned away from me and removed her nametag. When I stated I would speak to her supervisor, she made the sarcastic comment "Ooh, I'm trembling." She also continued to argue with me in the hallway where other patients were and I'm 9 months pregnant to add. This place has no bedside manners towards those who truly need help or even any respect for the family members wanting to come visit. Do your research before considering this place for your loved one...

Very nice grounds, good food, and decor. Very rude Aides & Nurses. You can pull the Room Cord, and they NEVER come to assist, & show total disregard and disrespect for residents of failing memories. One aide entered the room to check oxygen source, and ate food off residents plate while they were in the bathroom.

My father was admitted to Harbour Health for rehab after his hip surgery. The therapist were excellent, he was up and walking that day and went back home after a week. Much stronger than when he arrived and happier too. The nursing staff members were attentive to his needs. All in all a very pleasent experience for Dad and me.

I was recently a patient there and became gravely ill with c-dif ,which seems to be a problem there. They transferred me back to the hospital with little notice and lost my hearing aid and clothing in the process. After two months of inquiries about my hearing aids, I am beginning to see that no one cares. Pass on this place !!

My husband was in South Port Square in rehab. It has everything. It's real nice, but we couldn't afford it. If you went there to live, they have apartments. They have a dining room. You go there and eat in the dining room. The food was good there, even in the rehab. The staff was very good. The women who are interested do craft work there. They get together and do things, and they have entertainment. We like it being close to our home here where we live. We know people in this community, so that part was good.

This facility looks nice, but both my parents were there and both got C-Dif and there weren't many precautions taken. As a result, my Mom passed away. I would NOT recommend this facility.

The rooms are beautiful at South Port. The whole place is very nice. The nursing staff cares very much. They do as much as they can for getting patients in and out of appointments with doctors. They're able to take the patients out to go somewhere if they want to take them out to dinner. They do the laundry. The food seems very good. They're overall an A+ place.

The grounds and buildings are well maintained. When you drive up to the complex, it looks like a resort. There are nice places for the residents to walk and sit outside. They have good activities for the residents. My parents seem to enjoy all the activities, especially the musical programs. The elderly seem to like listening to music from when they were young. After residents expressed problems with the dining room/food, the facility addressed the concerns and things seem to have improved.I do have concerns with communication between the medical staff, aides, residents, residents' doctors, and residents' family. I don't think everyone at the facility is kept current of the residents' problems and concerns and what needs to be done for them. We have experienced things falling between the cracks when not followed up by the family. Some of this maybe due to my parents being fairly new residents, but I think some of it is due to the staff not being experienced or they are understaffed, or people not taking the initiative to resolve issues. I'm not really sure. However, overall we are happy with the facility and my parents are settling in ok.

My father was at this facility for just over 24 hours before he died. He was recovering from heart surgery and was doing very well when he left the hospital. When I went to visit him just a couple of hours before he passed, I noticed the smell of feces as I passed several rooms. Medical staff were wandering around, noticibly not addressing the urine and fecal smell. When I spoke to my father, he told me that they left him laying in his own feces for hours without assisting him. I assured him that I was going to get him out of this facility the next morning, but I was too late. We never had an autopsy done, so I don't know what killed him. As a legal disclaimer, I am in no way saying that this facility is responsible for his death. I am only reporting what I observed and what was told to me by my father.
