    Retirement Homes & Senior Housing

A retirement home differs from a nursing home primarily in the level of medical care given. 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. Retirement homes are privately owned rental accommodations for seniors who are able to manage and pay for their own care. Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with activities of daily living. A retirement home is a multi-residence housing facility intended for senior citizens. Retirement homes are also called retirement residences. 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. An assisted living facility may be a good choice if you don’t need the round-the-clock medical care and supervision of a nursing home. Assistance may include the administration or supervision of medication, or personal care services provided by a trained staff person.
