About The Montclair Senior Living

Dial Senior Living

Lifestyle Options

We know how hard it can be to choose the right senior living community. Start here to learn more about our options, and then take our questionnaire to find out which one is right for you or your loved one.

What is Independent Living?

Independent living provides seniors the chance to live the independent life they want, free to move about and enjoy every single day without having to worry about everyday maintenance, housekeeping, or security.

If you choose our independent living option, we’ll help you stay healthy by providing a variety of dining options; giving you the ability to run errands and visit your favorite places with transportation services; and keeping your mind and body active through daily activities provided to the entire community. Because this option is designed for independent seniors, it does not include some of the more extensive offerings assisted living does. We have created partnerships our independent living residents can choose to take advantage of if they need a little extra help.

At Dial Senior Living, the services we offer can range from helping remind residents to take medications daily to offering assistance with the activities of daily life, such as bathing and getting dressed.

What separates our assisted living communities from other options starts with our environment. Seniors in need of assistance have the help they need, when they need it. Better yet, our apartment floor plans include large, private bathrooms and spacious kitchenette areas to allow anyone to move freely and independently when they want.

I can’t say enough good things about Chris Huddleston and the team at Mont Claire Senior Living. From the very beginning, they made what could have been a stressful and emotional transition feel smooth, respectful, and genuinely caring. Chris went above and beyond to ensure my family member felt comfortable, welcomed, and valued. The staff demonstrated professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail every step of the way. It’s clear they truly care about the residents and their families, not just as part of their job, but as people. The facility itself is clean, well-maintained, and has a warm, inviting atmosphere. Knowing my family member is in such capable and compassionate hands gives me real peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful for the excellent job Chris Huddleston and everyone at Mont Claire Senior Living have done. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality senior

Lovely place for your elderly loved ones to live independently. Very nice atmosphere, residents seem to genuinely love to be there and the staff is very caring and attentive. Highly recommend for anyone 55 and older who is just looking for a place to retire. Newly remodeled apartments that are very spacious as well.
