What to Expect From Independent Living (And How Does it Compare to Assisted Living)
Independent living communities are designed for seniors who are capable of living on their own but prefer the convenience of assistance with some tasks and the social aspect of community living.
Assisted living facilities on the other hand offer a higher level of service, assisting with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication management for those who cannot live independently.
Is Financial Assistance Available for Independent Living?
While Medicare generally does not cover long-term care, such as independent living, memory care, and assisted living, various options, such as long-term care insurance, veterans' benefits, or Medicaid, may help cover costs.
