Independent Living
Many seniors may be physically and mentally able to live without assistance, but the financial burden of home ownership might deter them from an independent lifestyle. Independent Living Communities offer a great alternative. Residents can live their lives as they wish while their food is prepared by a professionall chef, housekeeping and laundry duties are handled by staff, and recreational activities are scheduled and organized. Along with their daily needs being met, residents can enjoy an opportunity to be among peers, in a community with others of similar age groups and backgrounds. Typically comprised of a private living area and a full kitchen, these communities offer residences with many of the amenities of apartment life but without the hassle. Guests can be invited over and entertained, and there will be more time to spend with them with the basic maintenance of daily tasks out of the way. While policies differ between communities, many residences allow cats and dogs as well. If medical or nursing care is desired, residents may always utilize the services of private health care professionalls. There are a variety of expenditures and advantages to consider while determining an independent living community. It is important to figure out if these services are included in your plan: initial assessment fee, meals, Waiting list deposit, laundry, wellness program, transportation, parking, and utilities. The luxuries that pertain to independent living include golf course, game/TV room, community activities, beauty salon & barber shop, private rental hall, restaurant-style dining hall, healthcare center, and fitness center & swimming pool.
