New! Lending Library

A Community of Care—One Borrowed Item at a Time

As part of our commitment to supporting you through life’s transitions, the What’s Next Committee is proud to introduce the Hearts of Miromar Lending Library—a neighbor-to-neighbor network that connects residents who need medical support items with those who have them to share. From walkers to shower stools and more, we’re making it easier to borrow or lend with dignity, simplicity, and kindness.

We don’t have a central storage space—instead, you keep your item until it’s needed. Our team maintains a catalog of available equipment and coordinates pickup and delivery when there’s a match.

It’s one more way we’re showing up for each other—because sometimes, what’s next is just a little help away.

Have a topic you’d like us to explore or a helpful resource to share? We’d love to hear from you!
