Gardens Senior Living and Viconic Health announced the deployment of Viconic Fall Defense in both of Gardens’ brand new senior living communities in Michigan. A patented fall protection system right under the floor covering, Viconic is engineered for reducing the risk of fall-related injuries and for ease of installation. Once installed, it invisibly supports mobility, health aging, and independence for years to come.

Gardens Senior Living is a regional senior living developer that strives to create an environment and experience that supports each individual’s quality of life and growth. “We’ve made the decision to invest in solutions that will enhance the resident and staff experience,” said Steve Williamson, CEO of Gardens Senior Living. Accordingly, Viconic will be installed in both its Carleton and Three Rivers communities.

“When we were introduced to Viconic, we knew it had to be a part of our plan as it aligns with our values in meaningful ways:

1. to protect residents and staff, reducing the risk of serious injury, should a fall occur;
2. to afford residents a sense of safety, so they can live active, fulfilling lives without the fear of a catastrophic fall;
3. to provide ergonomic support and comfort for staff who are on their feet hours at a time;
4. to provide an attractive, residential aesthetic for our residents—since Viconic is compatible with a host of flexible floorcoverings; and
5. to fulfill our brand reputation of being a tech-forward, high-quality senior living provider focused on giving residents the best life experiences.”

Trusted by the U.S. military, Viconic is an ideal option for new construction and remodels in all senior living care settings, as well as for home remodels for those wishing to age in their own homes. “Our goal is to work with senior living developers to reduce the risk of fall-related injury and support mobility and healthy aging, commented Joel Cormier. “Gardens Senior Living is known as a forward-thinking, high-quality senior living developer and we are delighted to be working with them on their next two projects.”
