Four top reasons to move into independent living
Moving into independent living is a proactive move. If you’re putting this off for any reason, here are six things that others love about their retirement home.
1. Something to do every day. No more keeping the television on for company! Retirement homes typically have a full daily schedule of activities. There are games, entertainers, physical fitness activities, seminars, and outings. On top of that, there will be casual things like card games, bistro food to share, or just plain old conversation with your neighbor down the hall. You don’t need to go anywhere. Everything you need is right in the building.
2. Amenities ideal for your age. How many apartment buildings have a putting green? How about a hot tub and swimming pool? Or an in-house movie theatre? There are seniors’ buildings in Langley that have all three of those – and more! It makes high living easily accessible. Many seniors who move into independent living will tell you, “I never knew I could live like this.”
3. Safety and security that sets your family’s mind at ease. They may not tell you, but family members worry about you being in an outdated house with hazards like steep stairs, mold, or old carpeting. Being a senior, you’re vulnerable. Move to a Langley independent senior living community, and they’ll never worry again. There’s always staff around and a secured entrance. If you fall or have some other medical problem, someone will be there to take care of you.
4. Life is simplified. There’s no more cooking and cleaning, no more bills to pay, and no more upkeep to worry about. Everything is taken care of in one simple monthly bill. Someone else cooks and clears the table, sweeps or vacuums, and takes care of plumbing and roofing. If there’s a problem, call down to the desk, and someone else will fix it.
This is only the start! Find our fuller look at the many benefits of senior living.
