SENIOR HOUSING OPTIONS
Presented by Senectus
In planning for retirement, an important step is reviewing and considering the various senior housing options. Joyce Logan with Ruby Care Senior Living Advisors discusses various housing types, communities and living-arrangement options for 55+ adults, including independent-living, active-adult, assisted-living, skilled-care and helpful advice about choosing the right home & community for older adults.
Why Senectus?
Senectus has a mission: simplifying access to quality, affordable services for seniors. Yet, as a consumer, it’s fair to ask why these services would join as a group, with a name, identity and shared purpose. Although each organizer has earned a reputation for service, why does connecting as Senectus offer more than the sum of our parts… or partners?
What unites us is a need: A majority of adults are unprepared for helping an aging family member to make inevitable, life-changing decisions. However, over 65% of adults will end up in a care giving role. Further, due to the aging of boomers, there is a rapidly growing need for elder support. And, in the Gen X and in Millennial generations following baby boomers, there will be fewer and fewer available family members to help with aging in place, downsizing, relocation and financial preparedness.
In planning, an important success factor is knowing who to turn to for resources, advice and assistance. Added to this, numerous services may be needed and coordination of them may be vital, all within a budget, timeline, often during uncertain times of change, and likely with a limited, fixed income. Care givers and family who intend well, yet have busy schedules of their own.
