Wellness

At Landis Homes, residents are actively engaged in pursing the seven dimensions of wellness: physical, spiritual, social, intellectual, emotional, environmental and vocational. Residents are supported in their efforts to participate safely in their endeavors to remain healthy and independent.

Located in the Calvin G. and Janet C. High Learning & Wellness Center is a state-of-the-art fitness center and a warm water aquatic center. Residents are invited to participate in a free orientation with a member of our Wellness Team, who will get you started in our fitness center, aquatic center, and/or participating in one of our group exercise classes. Personal trainers are available should a resident want more one-on-one attention. The Wellness Team also partners with our onsite Therapy Department, which allows for ease of transition from therapy to wellness.

Enhance your body, mind and spirit with our wellness programs!
