Assisted Living Where You Can Thrive
HearthStone offers assisted living in Florida for older adults who want personalized support without giving up the routines and choices that make daily life their own. Through the Blue Sky Experience, assistance is shaped around each resident’s needs while encouraging independence wherever possible.
HearthStone communities are located in Central Florida near Orlando, with assisted living options in Leesburg, Nona Lakes, and Wildwood. Residents can enjoy restaurant-style dining and community programming, while services such as housekeeping and laundry take more off their plates. The result is a lifestyle with support close by and more freedom to focus on what feels meaningful each day.
Why Consider an Assisted Living community?
Every situation and every individual is unique. Some may decide to move to an assisted living community because they enjoy the easier, no-hassle lifestyle. Others choose to transition to assisted living because they need additional help with daily activities.
If you or your family member or friend is experiencing any of the following, it may be time to consider an assisted living community:
- Worsening of health conditions
- Experiencing an increase in falls or becoming prone to other accidents
- Difficulty managing bills and personal finances
- Trouble performing necessary tasks to maintain a safe living environment
- Feelings of isolation or bouts of depression
- Problems with performing daily living actions, such as personal hygiene or eating
- Difficulty with medication management
Making the change to an assisted living community like HearthStone means you will have access to a support network and resources that will help you live as independently as possible, for as long as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Assisted living in Florida provides personalized support for older adults who could benefit from help with everyday routines while continuing to live as independently as possible. At HearthStone, the Blue Sky Experience shapes support around the individual rather than expecting every resident to need the same things.
Depending on the resident’s needs, assistance can include personal care and medication management. HearthStone also provides restaurant-style dining, housekeeping, and laundry, leaving residents with fewer daily responsibilities and more time for life beyond them.
Pet policies vary among assisted living communities in Florida, so it is important to ask about specific guidelines when comparing options.
HearthStone understands that moving does not necessarily mean leaving a pet behind. Pet accommodations are available at select communities, and the team can discuss current policies based on the location you are considering.
Start by looking at the support you need now and what you want everyday life to feel like after a move. Ask how a community personalizes care and how much choice residents have in shaping their own routines.
Location matters too. HearthStone offers assisted living in Central Florida, with communities in Leesburg, Nona Lakes, and Wildwood. Visiting the location you are considering can help you get a better sense of the apartments and how residents spend their time.
Assisted living activities vary by community, but residents can typically choose from opportunities that support different interests and ways of spending the day.
At HearthStone, the Blue Sky Experience emphasizes personal choice. Residents might decide to join a wellness program or attend an event when it appeals to them. Participation is not about keeping a calendar full. Residents have room to decide what makes a good day for them.
Assisted living communities in Florida are licensed and regulated by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA). AHCA establishes requirements related to assisted living operations and resident care.
Some communities may also hold additional licenses that allow them to provide certain services. HearthStone at Leesburg, for example, holds a Limited Nursing Services (LNS) license, which allows select nursing services to be provided within the community.
The process for moving into assisted living in Florida generally includes discussing your needs with the community and completing an assessment to determine the appropriate level of support.
At HearthStone, the process also gives the team an opportunity to learn about the individual who will be moving in, including the routines and preferences that matter to them. A visit to the community can help you ask questions specific to your situation and begin determining if HearthStone feels like the right fit.
