    Retirement Homes & Senior Housing

A nursing home is normally the highest level of care for older adults outside of a hospital. The usual retirement home pattern is that each person or couple in the home has an apartment-style room or suite of rooms. Assistance may include the administration or supervision of medication, or personal care services provided by a trained staff person. You do not need to provide medical evidence that you need a minimum level of care. 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. Nursing Home residents in a skilled nursing facility may also receive physical, occupational, and other rehabilitative therapies following an accident or illness. Each state licensing agency has its own definition of the term it uses to describe assisted living. More than two-thirds of the states use the licensure term assisted living. Independent living is a general name for any housing arrangement designed exclusively for seniors. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. Retirement villages and retirement communities, unlike retirement homes, offer separate and autonomous homes for residents. Assisted living comes by many names, such as residential care, board and care, or group homes. 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. Generally, retirement homes are designed for seniors who need minimal to moderate support with their daily living activities.
