Senior Living - info and advice for older adults. A nursing home is normally the highest level of care for older adults outside of a hospital. Retirement homes are privately owned rental accommodations for seniors who are able to manage and pay for their own care. Independent Living Communities enable residents to live as independently as possible, while providing certain services and social activities. Nursing Home residents in a skilled nursing facility may also receive physical, occupational, and other rehabilitative therapies following an accident or illness. A retirement home is a multi-residence housing facility intended for senior citizens. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. 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. 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. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes.
