The Academy at Shell Point involves residents in lifelong learning
Located in Fort Myers on southwest Florida’s Gulf Coast, Shell Point Retirement Community is an accredited continuing care retirement community blessed with an enviable waterfront setting, a reputation for excellence, and a history of continued improvement and growth. The nonprofit community, which celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2008, attributes its foundation of success to its organizational values.
“Our community was founded by The Christian and Missionary Alliance, and while the denomination is not involved in our daily operations, we are mindful of the spiritual values that guide and inspire us,” Shell Point President Peter Dys told a local newspaper last year. “We desire to serve our residents and employees in a way that honors the whole person and respects their right to enjoy as independent a lifestyle as their health will allow.” Further, “we are committed to our residents in a way that we hope improves their well-being and enhances their lifestyle.”
