Dining at Our Jackson Senior Living Community

Take a bite out of the good life

At Regency Jackson senior living, our dining experience embodies much more than eating. It’s about socializing, camaraderie, and family, core values that define our Shield of Service approach to senior care.

Using made-from-scratch recipes and fresh ingredients, residents enjoy three delicious, well-balanced meals in our dining room, prepared daily by our culinary team. Our assisted living Jackson TN residents select from a variety of meal options for each mealtime. Meals can also be served in-room during periods of sickness, ensuring comfort and convenience.

Nutrition Focus in Our Jackson Senior Living Community

Beyond making mealtime enjoyable, we understand the critical importance of good nutrition for seniors in our care. Healthy eating is important at every age, but especially for older adults.

Food provides energy and helps control weight, while eating well may prevent certain diseases such as osteoporosis, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and even some cancers.

Addressing Senior Dining Challenges

We recognize factors that can make it difficult for seniors to maintain healthy diets, including:

• Living alone or having trouble shopping and preparing healthy meals
• Health issues make food prep and cooking difficult
• Medications and conditions changing appetite or taste perception
• Issues with self-feeding, chewing, or swallowing food

At our Regency of Jackson senior living community, we mitigate all these factors to ensure your loved one enjoys thoughtful dining with well-balanced meals and assistance when needed.

Supporting Healthy Nutrition Standards

According to the National Resource Center on Nutrition & Aging, as of 2017, food insecurity affects 5.5 million seniors 60 or older in the U.S. Our Jackson, TN Assisted Living community focuses on helping residents maintain healthy diets by providing access to excellent meals three times daily, all week long. Our capable, compassionate caregiving team at our Jackson, TN community assists residents needing extra help at mealtimes.
