A nursing home, convalescent home, Skilled Nursing Unit, care home or rest home provides a specific type of care for its residents. You do not need to provide medical evidence that you need a minimum level of care. Senior Living - info and advice for older adults. Retirement villages and retirement communities, unlike retirement homes, offer separate and autonomous homes for residents. 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. Generally, retirement homes are designed for seniors who need minimal to moderate support with their daily living activities. Retirement homes are privately owned rental accommodations for seniors who are able to manage and pay for their own care. Nursing Home residents include the elderly and younger adults with physical or mental disabilities. Housing arrangements for the future can be a stressful, anxiety-provoking topic for you and your family. A retirement home differs from a nursing home primarily in the level of medical care given. Independent Living Communities enable residents to live as independently as possible, while providing certain services and social activities. 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. Assisted living comes by many names, such as residential care, board and care, or group homes.
