Question

I need information on assisted living for elderly independence.

Answer 1

Residents in an independent community are usually able to complete their daily tasks such as preparing meals, cleaning home and other personal activities. Assisted living is similar to independent living. Residents in an assisted living community usually have their own home and that is its main difference from the nursing home. Residents in a nursing home requires care in all their needs but the case is different in assisted living.

Most seniors use their income and retirement savings to pay for independent living. Senior citizens are getting different social security benefits and pensions. This allows them to generate the necessary income for their assisted living. Assisted living is a little bit expensive as medicare or Medicaid are generally not paying the cost of living.
