Independent Living
For seniors who would prefer to live primarily without personal care assistance but wish for the assistance of having their household chores taken care of by professionalls, an Independent Living Community might be the perfect option. Daily needs such as meal planning and the scheduling of social activities are taken care of, which permits occupants more opportunities to live their lives as they see fit. Along with their daily needs being met, residents can enjoy an opportunity to live among peers, in a community with others of similar age groups and interests. Typically comprised of a private living space and a full kitchen, these communities offer homes with many of the amenities of apartment life but with none of 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 chores out of the way. While policies vary between communities, a number of residences allow cats and dogs as well. Nursing and health care services may always be arranged for with independent care providers if desired. There are a number of benefits and costs to keep in mind when deciding on an independent living community. It is important to determine if these amenities are included in the plan: move-in fee, utilities, field trips, initial assessment fee, transportation, meals, cable TV, and wellness program. The benefits and amenities that pertain to independent living include game/TV room, security guards, restaurant-style dining hall, transportation, golf course, private rental hall, laundry service, and community activities.
