Looking for senior housing? ask these questions first!

Our frequently asked questions

Choosing a senior living community can feel like a daunting task. To help narrow down your options, ask these questions first.

Not all senior housing is the same. There are many options to consider depending on the level of care you need:

 

Independent Senior Living


For those who want to live on their own. Includes apartments, condominiums or cooperative buildings designed for adults age 55 and older. If you need a little extra help, you can contract services such as housekeeping, personal care or wellness.

 

Assisted Living


Offers a rental apartment for those who don’t require complicated, full-time medical assistance. You can continue living independently, but care is there when you need it through care attendants and nurses. Meals and light housekeeping are part of the package.

 

Memory Care


Includes special touches for those with memory loss, such as uniquely designed apartments, specialized programming, and controlled exits to give you peace of mind knowing residents won’t wander off the property. Caregivers are also specially trained to work with people with dementia, providing a higher, more personalized level of care and attention.

 

Nursing Homes


Offer high-level nursing care around the clock. Long-term care is provided for those who have serious or persistent health issues. There are also short-term care options – or transitional care – for those who need rehabilitation services after an illness or injury. Nursing homes are licensed healthcare facilities that are inspected and regulated by the state department of health.
