For Residents

One simple place to stay connected, make plans, and enjoy the community.

ChimeBuddy brings the parts of community life residents use every day into one friendly app—from messages and Buddy to activities, reminders, dining, amenities, games, facility information, and help requests.

A day with ChimeBuddy

The app follows the rhythm of resident life.

Instead of asking residents to remember where everything lives, ChimeBuddy keeps the day’s information, conversations, plans, and support within reach.

Morning See what today looks like

Check reminders, community information, today’s menu, announcements, and upcoming activities.

Late morning Ask Buddy or message someone

Get a quick answer from Buddy, chat with another resident, or catch up in a community room.

Afternoon Make a plan

RSVP for an event, reserve an amenity, or make a dining reservation without chasing down a staff member.

Evening Stay social and have fun

Share photos or messages, see what is coming next, and enjoy Bingo, Trivia, Buddy Defense, or Buddy’s Garden.

Any time Ask for help when it is needed

Send a help request, follow its status, and use optional safety tools when the community enables them.

Start the day informed

Know what is happening without hunting for information.

A resident can open ChimeBuddy and quickly understand the day: what is coming up, what needs attention, what is being served, and where to find important community information.

  • Personal reminders and scheduled event reminders
  • Facility information, helpful contacts, announcements, and community details
  • Upcoming events and activities with times, locations, and RSVP options
  • Today’s dining menu and meal details
  • One home screen that points residents toward the things they use most

Plans without the runaround

From an activity to dinner, residents can make plans in the same app.

Events, amenities, dining menus, and reservations are separate parts of community life—but they do not have to feel like separate systems to the resident.

Stay connected

Talk with Buddy, residents, friends, and the community.

Messaging is not an add-on to the resident experience. It is one of the ways residents stay connected to people, information, and the community around them.

  • Resident messaging: send direct messages to fellow residents and friends.
  • Buddy messaging: open Buddy from the resident inbox for help finding information and navigating community life.
  • Community rooms: join shared conversations and interest-based rooms.
  • Share photos, updates, and everyday moments directly in conversations.
  • Keep community conversations separate from personal phone numbers and outside messaging apps.
One inbox, more ways to connect. Residents can see Buddy alongside their direct conversations, while Rooms provides a place for broader community and interest-based discussion.

Support when it matters

Residents can ask for help without wondering who to call.

When a resident needs maintenance, housekeeping, front desk assistance, transportation, technology help, wellness support, or another service the facility enables, the request can start in ChimeBuddy and stay visible as staff works it.

Help requests & tickets

Submit the request, add details, and follow the conversation or status without repeating the same issue to multiple departments.

  • Facility-defined request categories
  • Request updates and staff responses
  • A clear history of the request in one place

Optional location safety

Communities can enable permission-based location safety tools for arrival/departure awareness without turning the resident app into continuous tracking.

  • Facility-enabled and permission based
  • Arrival/departure awareness
  • Designed as a safety signal, not constant surveillance

ChimeBuddy includes games designed as part of the resident experience—not as a separate website residents have to remember to visit.

Family stays closer

Family can see more of the resident’s day without calling the front desk.

  • See upcoming activities and resident engagement information
  • Follow community announcements and daily updates
  • Use approved request and visit-planning tools
  • View permission-based safety and document information when enabled
  • Give loved ones more context around the resident’s day while the facility stays in control of access
