DOWNSIZING
Independent Living
Condos, townhouses, and single-family homes that are smaller and more maintenance free than larger family properties are frequently people's first choice, especially if they're healthy and active.
Active Adult Communities
Active adult communities aim to service the interests of active adults over the age of 55. Housing types often include condos, townhouses, and single-family properties, and all are designed with an eye toward delivering a maintenance-free lifestyle for residents. Such communities offer a vast array of on-site activities, including exercise, social clubs, are instruction and lecture series.
RESOURCES
RESOURCES THAT OUR SENIOR CLIENTS FIND HELPFUL
HANDS-ON CARE
Assisted Living Communities
Residents live in their own apartments, but have the benefit of an on-site staff, meal service in communal dining spaces, and planned activities and outings. Some assisted living communities also offer access to nurses and daily living assistance. Others may offer more extensive medical and personal services.
Adult Family Homes
Such properties are licensed to care for up to six residents in a home setting. Services typically include meals and housing maintenance and attending to residents' safety and care. Facilities may specialize in addressing specific health concerns and provide care and an environment tailored to those conditions.
Alzheimer's and Dementia Care
Facilities specialize in caring for patients with dementia and Alzheimer's disease offer programs that address residents' needs and provide an environment where they can live safely. Housing services typically include personal care, such as bathing and dressing and administering medicine, along with dining and housekeeping. In addition, many buildings incorporate over 50 design features, such as safe wandering paths and color-coded areas to help with way-finding. Such designs provide comfort and ease residents' anxiety.
Continuing Care Retirement Living Communities
A Continuing Care Retirement Living Community offer progressive levels of assistance, depending on a person's needs. They include independent and assisted living and nursing care.
WEIGHING THE OPTIONS
Choosing the appropriate over 50 living arrangement is challenging not only because it entails an emotional dimension, but also because of the complex issues you need to weigh, such as cost, location, services, amenities, activities, and current and future care needs.
SRES designees can consult with you to make the best over 50 housing choice for you or your loved one. They can also work with you to anticipate care needs as you age to ensure that today's housing choice will serve you well tomorrow.
