A retirement home differs from a nursing home primarily in the level of medical care given. Each state licensing agency has its own definition of the term it uses to describe assisted living. Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with monitoring of resident activities to help to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with coordination of services by outside health careproviders. 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. Retirement homes are also called retirement residences. 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. A nursing home, convalescent home, Skilled Nursing Unit, care home or rest home provides a specific type of care for its residents.
