Assisted Living

Canterbury is a retirement community unlike any other, offering three different levels of care under one roof: Independent Senior Living Apartments, Assisted Living Apartments and our Health Center, which offers short-term rehabilitation and long-term care nursing. All three levels of care have access to the Medicare certified skilled care rehab center.
