    Retirement Homes & Senior Housing

Retirement homes are privately owned rental accommodations for seniors who are able to manage and pay for their own care. Assisted living is a philosophy of care and services promoting independence and dignity. 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. Staff is available twenty-four hours a day. Generally, retirement homes are designed for seniors who need minimal to moderate support with their daily living activities. 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. Assisted Living communities are regulated and licensed at the US state level.

Retirement homes are privately owned rental accommodations for seniors who are able to manage and pay for their own care. A nursing home, convalescent home, Skilled Nursing Unit, care home or rest home provides a specific type of care for its residents. The usual retirement home pattern is that each person or couple in the home has an apartment-style room or suite of rooms. Staff is available twenty-four hours a day. The housing is friendlier to older adults, more compact, with easier navigation and assistance in outside maintenance. Assisted Living communities are regulated and licensed at the US state level.
