When it comes to planning for the future, smart decisions go beyond finances—they shape your health, happiness, and peace of mind. At The Stayton at Museum Way by Buckner, we offer more than just a beautiful place to live. As a Life Care community, The Stayton provides a proven model of wellness, stability, and purpose. And now, there’s data to support what our residents already know: Life Care works.
That’s not just our philosophy—it’s backed by data.
The Mather Institute’s Age Well Study—a landmark five-year analysis—found that residents in Life Plan communities (like The Stayton) experience notably better outcomes across all dimensions of wellness compared to those aging at home or in non-continuum settings.
The Science Behind Inspired Aging
The Age Well Study found that residents of Life Plan communities experienced:
- Greater emotional, physical, and cognitive well-being
- Lower levels of loneliness and isolation
- Higher life satisfaction and purpose
- Better overall health outcomes and longer lifespans
These findings affirm what we’ve always believed: when your future feels secure, you live more fully in the present.
At The Stayton, Life Care isn’t a contract. It’s a commitment to living well at every stage.
