| What is an Independent Senior Living Community? In this blog post, Sympaticare, a Senior Living Management Company, explains exactly what independent living means for seniors. |
Independent senior living, or individual retirement communities, are designated places where those over the age of 55 can enjoy the comfort and ease of convenient services and senior-friendly surroundings.
The communities usually consist of either apartments, townhomes, cottages, or condominiums. The ideal resident for an independent senior living community would be an individual or couple that does not require daily assistance with their tasks or round-the-clock nurse care.
For seniors who require more assistance than an independent senior community can offer, Assisted Senior Living or Skilled Nursing are options to be explored with your healthcare provider.
Independent living communities are also becoming popular among the “snowbird” population, as it gives them the ease to travel as they please and they do not have to worry about a home to tend to.
Some benefits of independent senior living include:
Increased socialization
Activities and social programs
Dining services
Housekeeping services
Medical transportation services
Several independent senior living communities even have amenities such as:
Pools
Saunas
Clubhouses
Fitness Centers
Group exercise classes and personal trainers
Creative spaces
Walking paths
Golf
And more!
Independent senior living lets you continue to be in control of your life, with the comfort of community.
