Independent living offers onsite services to make daily living convenient and amenities that let residents pursue their interests. In contrast, assisted living provides the additional service of daily help with tasks such as bathing, dressing, eating, and more. Often assisted living residents will receive this help at certain intervals of the day, but otherwise spend their time freely on campus.
Maybe you’re ready to travel but feel tied down by home maintenance. Perhaps you’re ready to be a part of a large and active community. Or maybe you just want to live a simplified life where all the services and amenities you need are virtually at your fingertips.
If this sounds like you, independent living might be right for you. Independent living can boost your quality of life, no matter what stage of retirement you’re in. Here, you have the freedom and support to pursue lifelong interests. You’ll also have access to a range of medical services in case your health needs change.
Planning a future of independent living on Long Island, whether you’re from Suffolk County, Nassau County, or beyond, can free up your time to focus on yourself and let you enjoy every moment of your retirement.
