tative unit. That unit will serve anyone strug-
gling to recover from a brain injury, whether
it is a military veteran, first responder injured
in the line of duty, victim of a car accident or
any other. At present, there is a lack of such
rehabilitative services in the region, and
those with such recovery needs would tradi-
tionally have to venture to centers in Tampa
or Gainesville for help. As Townsend ex-
plains, “Our vision is to be a medical model.
We don’t see ourselves as just helping seniors
of our community, but doing all that we can
to help our entire community.”
That kind of thinking has helped Brent-
wood at Fore Ranch foster relationships
which equate to additional benefits for resi-
dents. In addition to healthcare services that
can be accessed fromWest Marion Hospital,
Brentwood at Fore Ranch has relationships
with enterprises such as Ocala Geriatric, and
United Therapy Group, as well as skilled
nursing facilities which include that of Tim-
ber Ridge, Avante and Palm Garden.
Beyond the degree of thought that has
been placed in developing the grounds and
facilities of Fore Ranch, Townsend says
equal attention to detail has driven develop-
ment of services and care plans in order to
deliver quality deserved, and demanded, by
residents. For its range of professional care
services, luxurious accommodations and mix
of meaningful things to do, this standout
sanctuary of horse country is galloping with
potential for further growth.
