Complete guide to independent living

Sussex, Wisconsin

Independent Living

If you or your loved one want the convenience of having many of your frequent tasks taken care of by professionalls while living at your own pace, consider independent living. Basic chores such as meal planning and housekeeping are handled by staff and a calendar of recreational and leisure activities is provided, allowing residents an opportunity to use their time as they wish, free from daily responsibilities. Along with their daily needs being met, residents can enjoy the opportunity to live among peers, surrounded by others of similar ages and backgrounds. Typically comprised of a private living space and a full kitchen, these communities offer homes 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 vary between communities, many residences allow cats and dogs as well. If medical or nursing assistance is desired, residents may always utilize the services of independent caregivers. There are a number of advantages and costs to keep in mind while selecting an independent living community. It is important to learn if these amenities are included in the care plan: internet access, Waiting list deposit, cable TV, initial assessment fee, wellness program, housekeeping, private phone, and parking. The benefits and amenities that pertain to independent living include security guards, golf course, fitness center & swimming pool, concierge services, laundry service, game/TV room, transportation, and beauty salon & barber shop.
