Live your senior years as part of a thriving community—choose the continuing care retirement community or life plan community that’s right for you, even if you’re still a few years away from retirement.

Retirement can be a joyful time; however, one question hangs over your head: how can you prepare for your long-term care? The old idea that family will take care of you in your senior years is beautiful but often impractical. You may not have any family or your family may be consumed with their daily survival or not be as financially stable as you are. You may not want to be a burden to your family.

Perhaps you are considering moving into a senior living or retirement community, but you don’t know which one will suit your lifestyle. CCRCs have different requirements, including financial requirements and health checks… and that’s why the smartest thing to do is to make a choice before you actually have to.

The younger you are, the more energy you have to make new friendships, settle into your chosen CCRC with your spouse or partner, and make any necessary arrangements—including selling your home or other assets in time to make a smooth transition.
