Active seniors who have things to
do, places to go and people to see
are often happy in an Independent
Living community, which may be
part of a larger senior residence.
Independent Living is usually
offered as a monthly rental apart-
ment that could have one or two
bedrooms, a separate living room
and a fully functional kitchen. It is
designed for people who do not
require skilled nursing care, who
are ambulatory and who can be
completely independent, hence the
name. Many Independent Living
residents continue to drive and
there is free parking for them.
A logical question many people ask
is, why not just live in a regular
apartment, not associated with a
senior community? Here are some
of the benefits:
• No maintenance worries, no
snow shoveling, lawn mowing,
repairs, property taxes or other
burdens of owning a home
• Amenities right on premises
including exercise room, movie/
club room, large, comfortable
common areas with fireplaces,
daily cocktail hours and conti-
nental breakfasts
• You are in the company of fellow
seniors who also have their own
apartments and who value mak-
ing new friends
• Organized Lifestyle activities that
include exercise programs, guest
speakers, live music, crafts and
scheduled outings
• Total freedom to choose any, all
or no activities, to come and go
as you please from your own
apartment
• Available Wellness counseling
and on-site medical professionals
• A 24/7 emergency pendant sys-
tem, so help is just a click away
For many seniors, moving into the
safety, peace and comfort of their
own apartment is freedom to start
a new life. And the convenience of
living on your own terms is equaled
only by the peace of mind you have
knowing that if you ever need the
next level of care, you are literally
next door to Assisted Living.
Downsizing is another common
reason for moving into Independent
Living. As we get older, many of us
simply don’t need as much space
and would actually welcome leav-
ing a lot of “stuff” behind. Many
Independent Living communities
offer speakers who are experts on
reducing clutter, consolidating
space and organizing the things
that are really important. It’s never
too late to make a clean start, and
that can include a tidy, organized
Independent Living apartment.
Finally, there’s nothing more impor-
tant than family and friends. People
who choose Independent Living
value visits from their children and
grandchildren who live nearby and
new friends who live down the hall.
There’s a certain pride in hosting
visits in your own apartment, fur-
nished with the personal things
that make it your home. Keepsakes
that include family photos in spe-
cial frames, souvenirs of your trav-
els and crafts made by your grand-
kids all contribute to that special
place that is your home.
