Emeritus at Gainesville

About Us

Programs & Services Offered:

"We have promised ourselves that we shall always treat our residents as we would our own loved ones. Nothing less than our best will do."

This is a simple promise that the staff at Emeritus at Gainesville - and throughout Emeritus Senior Living communities - has shared since 1998, when our community first opened its doors. It's a simple promise to be compassionate and kind, understanding and respectful - a promise to become extended family to the seniors entrusted in our care and to our retirees who have chosen our community for its active lifestyle.

The Perfect Location

Emeritus at Gainesville is nestled between businesses and residences giving us a warm, comfortable feeling.

Emeritus at Gainesville is close to shopping and entertainment venues and just 5 minutes off I-75. We are close enough to the University of Florida to "feel" the Gator Nation, yet far enough away to enjoy a quiet, pleasant environment.

A Wonderful Selection

Whether you would prefer the intimacy of a private studio or would like to spread out in a two-room suite, at Emeritus at Gainesville we can accommodate your desire. Emeritus at Gainesville has all of our apartments on one level for easy access to our residents; no worries of tumbles down staircases, difficulty maneuvering around in an elevator, or confusing floor plans. Relax under the gazebo is our courtyard, sit with friends in the dining room, or read a book in our quiet living rooms. The choice is yours! Learn more about Emeritus’ senior communities.

Alzheimer's and Dementia Care Services

We offer an innovative program for our residents with memory impairments called Join Their Journey. The premise is simple; our specially-trained staff joins residents in their moment, rather than trying to bring them into our reality. Our goal is to get to know each resident and their family, so that we can offer the right support for every stage of the disease process.

Join Their Journey - Our Unique Approach for Alzheimer's and Dementia Care

Our community also offers an innovative memory care program, Join Their Journey®, for seniors affected by Alzheimer's or dementia. Because your family's experience will be unlike any other, our goal is to get to know you and your loved one, so that we can offer support and solutions for your individual situation. We "join the journey" of your loved one by recognizing individuality, encouraging choices and allowing residents the dignity to live in a secure, personalized and familiar setting that feels comfortable for them.
