ASSISTED-LIVING FACILITIES CILITIES
Assisted living is designed for people who need help with certain activities and household management. It’s not full care — hence the term “assisted” — so residents are still technically living on their own, but they still offer varying levels of assistance. Some communities offer all three of the above types of living arrangements/housing — leisure, independent, and continuing care.
BENEFITS OF COMMUNITY LIVING
Regardless of which type of community living arrangement would best suit your needs as you look forward to the future, there are many benefits to choosing community living over purchasing a small house or townhouse, or over moving into your own condo or apartment. Here are some of the most notable benefits of community living.
1. You don’t have to worry about home maintenance or yard work.
Looking for a simple and stress-free lifestyle in your future? Consider moving into a senior housing arrangement. While this also applies to condo and apartment living, not having to worry about home maintenance or yard work is a significant benefit of community living. Every time there’s a problem that needs to be dealt with, it’s someone else’s problem.
