A nursing home is normally the highest level of care for older adults outside of a hospital. A place in a retirement home can be paid for on a rental basis, like an apartment, or can be bought in perpetuity on the same basis as a condominium. Independent living is a general name for any housing arrangement designed exclusively for seniors. Staff is available twenty-four hours a day. A retirement home is a multi-residence housing facility intended for senior citizens. The housing is friendlier to older adults, more compact, with easier navigation and assistance in outside maintenance. 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. Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with coordination of services by outside health careproviders. Nursing Home residents in a skilled nursing facility may also receive physical, occupational, and other rehabilitative therapies following an accident or illness.

A nursing home, convalescent home, Skilled Nursing Unit, care home or rest home provides a specific type of care for its residents. 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. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. Assistance may include the administration or supervision of medication, or personal care services provided by a trained staff person. Independent Living Communities enable residents to live as independently as possible, while providing certain services and social activities.
