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. You have a close network of nearby family, friends, and neighbors. Staff is available twenty-four hours a day. Some facilities provide minor help with medications as well. The usual retirement home pattern is that each person or couple in the home has an apartment-style room or suite of rooms. 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. Staff is available twenty-four hours a day.
