Types of communities
- Independent-living communities cater to older adults with limited care needs. Most include amenities, such as fitness programs, housekeeping and communal needs.
- Assisted-living communities specialize in providing care and supervision. These facilities frequently offer a full range of amenities as well as limited medical assistance.
- Memory care facilities specialize in providing care to seniors with Alzheimer's, dementia and other cognitive issues. Staff members are trained to help residents manage these diseases.
- Hospice care is intended to relieve symptoms and suffering associated with a terminal illness in those who have been given six months or less to live. The patient must choose to forgo further curative treatment.
