    Retirement Homes & Senior Housing

Each state licensing agency has its own definition of the term it uses to describe assisted living. 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. Senior Housing - find independent and assisted living facilities, nursing homes, retirement communities, and other elderly care. Assisted living comes by many names, such as residential care, board and care, or group homes. The usual retirement home pattern is that each person or couple in the home has an apartment-style room or suite of rooms. Generally, retirement homes are designed for seniors who need minimal to moderate support with their daily living activities. The housing is friendlier to older adults, more compact, with easier navigation and assistance in outside maintenance. 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. Retirement homes are also called retirement residences. There is a wide range of home care services that can help you maintain your independence within the comfort of your own home, from in home help to day care. A retirement home differs from a nursing home primarily in the level of medical care given. You have a close network of nearby family, friends, and neighbors. 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. Nursing Home residents include the elderly and younger adults with physical or mental disabilities.
