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. A retirement home differs from a nursing home primarily in the level of medical care given. Staff is available twenty-four hours a day. Senior Housing - find independent and assisted living facilities, nursing homes, retirement communities, and other elderly care. 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. Assistance may include the administration or supervision of medication, or personal care services provided by a trained staff person. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. A retirement home is a multi-residence housing facility intended for senior citizens. 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.
