Independent living for seniors is usually in a small, easy to maintain private apartment or house within a community of seniors. No personal care or medical care is available as part of the senior independent living community, but other services may be available for recreation or convenience, like transportation.

Senior housing designed for those no longer able to live safely on their own, but who don’t require the high level of care provided in a nursing home. Also called "board and care homes", "personal care homes" and/or "residential care homes" including Adult Family Homes.

Nursing homes, sometimes known as skilled nursing facilities, may provide a full range of care needs, including acute care and long term care.

Continuing care retirement communities provide different levels of care (independent, assisted living, and nursing home) based on individual needs. A resident is able to move throughout the different levels of care within the community if his or her needs change.

When this option is selected, only CCRCs will be returned in search results, and the other category checkboxes will be ignored.

What to look for in senior housing

Dementia Care Listings: We are constantly expanding the inclusion of specialized dementia care programs and services in our comprehensive national housing database. However, some housing providers with dementia care, have not provided this information which would enable them to show in a search result. Some housing providers do not provide dementia care at all. When you locate housing you may be interested in, it's a good idea to call and ask about dementia care.

Care Services: Assess all of the care needs of your loved one. If the person needs special care for Alzheimer's disease, has a tendency to fall, or has other disabilities, you should make certain that the facility is trained to handle those conditions.

Location: Look for housing that will be convenient for family and friends to visit. You will most likely want to be able to drop in and see that your loved one is happy and properly cared for.

Amenities: Think about the things that would make the potential resident feel "at home." Privacy, access to a phone, a TV in the room, a pleasant courtyard or garden, outings, and other amenities all add up to a higher quality of life.

Cost: What resources do you have available to pay for senior housing? A financial planner or estate attorney can help you understand your options.
