Assisted Living communities are regulated and licensed at the US state level. You do not need to provide medical evidence that you need a minimum level of care. Assisted living emerged in the 1990s as an eldercare alternative on the continuum of care for seniors for whom Independent living is no longer appropriate but who do not need the 24-hour medical care provided by a nursing home. A nursing home may be a good choice if both medical and personal care needs have become too great to handle at home. Independent living is a general name for any housing arrangement designed exclusively for seniors. Generally, retirement homes are designed for seniors who need minimal to moderate support with their daily living activities. A retirement home is a multi-residence housing facility intended for senior citizens.
