Assisted living communities are different from nursing homes. Nursing homes provide round the clock medical care and help with daily living. They are specifically for aging adults who require constant care and supervision or have a higher degree of health concerns. Assisted living communities do not provide medical care, they do offer more independent programming, larger apartments with varied floorplans, and a safe, secure environment in a community setting.

Many people envision their grandparents’ pre-2000 nursing home when they think about senior living. Today’s assisted living communities are vastly different, offering restaurant quality meals, varied group and independent activities, and staff who support residents with their health and well-being goals. Let us show you some wonderful communities with the amenities you are looking for in a new home!
