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. Some facilities provide minor help with medications as well. A nursing home may be a good choice if you need a higher level of care temporarily after a hospitalization, but it’s anticipated you will be able to return to home or another facility after a period of time. You have a close network of nearby family, friends, and neighbors. 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. Nursing Home residents in a skilled nursing facility may also receive physical, occupational, and other rehabilitative therapies following an accident or illness.
