Assisted living is a philosophy of care and services promoting independence and dignity. Retirement villages and retirement communities, unlike retirement homes, offer separate and autonomous homes for residents. Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with coordination of services by outside health careproviders. Some facilities provide minor help with medications as well. Each state licensing agency has its own definition of the term it uses to describe assisted living. Each state licensing agency has its own definition of the term it uses to describe assisted living. Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with monitoring of resident activities to help to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Assisted living comes by many names, such as residential care, board and care, or group homes. A retirement home is a multi-residence housing facility intended for senior citizens. A retirement home differs from a nursing home primarily in the level of medical care given. A nursing home, convalescent home, Skilled Nursing Unit, care home or rest home provides a specific type of care for its residents. Retirement homes are privately owned rental accommodations for seniors who are able to manage and pay for their own care. Nursing Home residents include the elderly and younger adults with physical or mental disabilities. Nursing Home residents in a skilled nursing facility may also receive physical, occupational, and other rehabilitative therapies following an accident or illness. An assisted living facility may be a good choice if you need more personal care services than are feasible at home or in an independent living retirement community. You do not need to provide medical evidence that you need a minimum level of care.
