Understanding the difference of Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Active Senior Apartments
Independent Living communities cater to seniors who may require some level of assistance, providing services such as meals, laundry, maid service, and planned activities. However, additional assistance, such as aides for daily tasks, must be arranged independently. Assisted Living facilities are better suited for individuals needing a higher level of support, offering on-site professionals for daily challenges and medical care, typically covered within the facility's cost. On the other hand, Active Adult Living communities represent the pinnacle of independence for active adults, foregoing hidden charges for unnecessary services. Instead, they offer a lifestyle perfectly aligned with residents' preferences and financial considerations, emphasizing freedom and flexibility.
