March 25, 2021
Naples, Fla. – Vi at Bentley Village is pleased to announce plans for a large-scale revitalization project to refurbish the community’s Skilled Nursing Facility (Bentley Care Center) and Assisted Living Residences. These two care areas are part of the Vi at Bentley Village campus which also includes independent living apartments and coach homes. The $41 million redevelopment is anticipated to commence in the third quarter of 2021 and conclude within 18 months.
In the Bentley Care Center, resident rooms will be redesigned for enhanced privacy. All resident rooms will be transformed into single-occupancy rooms with private baths and located on the second and third floors of the existing building and a new north wing. Once completed, there will be 84 private rooms. In addition, the therapeutic areas, multipurpose spaces and activity areas will be enhanced to allow for growth of services. Integrated into the Bentley Care Center will be the new “Bentley Center for Living Well” which will house new wellness, home health and therapy services. The 5,700 square foot therapy building will include: state-of-the-art physical and occupational therapy equipment, private treatment rooms and an outdoor therapy courtyard. Parking areas, building entryways and exterior spaces at the care center will also be
revamped.
In the Assisted Living Residences, the expansion will increase resident capacity to 84-one-bedroom assisted living apartments and 15 memory support apartments. The renewal will also include new living and dining spaces with a lounge and bar, and multipurpose, fitness and activity rooms. The courtyard will be re-envisioned to provide enhanced seating and shade structures along with new landscaping.
“We are excited to announce this redevelopment because it shows our commitment to provide top-notch services and amenities to heighten our residents’ well-being,” said Penny Smith, Executive Director at Vi at Bentley Village. “The expanded facilities will allow us to augment programs and activities that our dedicated employees implement as they care for our residents in these venues.”
