What Is The Difference Between Assisted And Independent Living?
Independent living communities primarily focus on serving residents’ social needs and wellness goals. Assisted living communities support those who need aid with activities of daily living. These additional services allow residents to live as independently as possible.
Independent living residences are typically more affordable but unlikely to be covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or insurance. Assisted living, by contrast, greatly expands upon the level of care a senior can expect at home.
Why choose independent living sooner than later?
If you ever get a moment to chat with residents from senior living communities, most of them will tell you they should have made the move sooner. Here are some common reasons why:
Freedom
Residents no longer have to manage the hassles of caring for a house or yard. Worrying about laundry or cleaning up after a meal is not a concern. Seniors in independent living have more time to do the things they like. They have the freedom and time to learn new hobbies. Make the move faster to enjoy it even longer.
Active Lifestyle
Many residents often say, “There’s so much to do here; you cannot fit all of it on your calendar.” It’s not uncommon for older adults to realize how little they did when they lived in their previous homes. At Hillcrest, there are many possibilities at their fingertips.
Social Connections
Social seclusion can be devastating to your physical and psychological well-being. As an independent living resident, social connections are made daily in various activities, clubs, outings, and celebrations.
Accessibility of Care
As healthy and balanced as you may be now, you never know if or when your wellness will change. Relocating into a continuing care community as an independent living resident gives you accessibility to quality care right when needed. An earlier move has significantly blessed numerous individuals who experienced unforeseen health issues.
What Is The Average Cost Of Senior Independent Living?
According to the National Investment Center, the typical monthly cost of independent living is around $3,200. However, month-to-month charges can vary anywhere from $1,500 to $5,000 or even more. Independent living costs vary widely based on the location, services, and amenities.
