Independent Living
Summary
Independent Living is for those who want to enjoy a lifestyle which they can continue to pursuit their passions without worrying about things like household chores. We offer Independent Living at selected communities, which give you the chance to trade the worries of homeownership like basic utilities, maintenance and landscaping, for the true comforts of home. Our Independent Living is designed to feel and function like a private residence while offering a suite of fun and engaging social excursions and delicious dining options. Many of our Independent Living communities are located on the same campus as of our Assisted Living or skilled nursing communities. As and when a resident feel they need more care, in the future, they can rest easy knowing that they don’t have to go through the hassle of moving out of the community.
