In recent years, many attractive options for retirement living have emerged. One popular option is the continuing care retirement community (CCRC), known in some regions as a lifecare community.
Religious organizations, fraternal groups & other non-profit agencies sponsor most CCRCs. These communities provide comprehensive residential and healthcare services.
At the same time, they offer some distinct advantages:
- Physical and financial security
- Access to health care as needed
- Companionship of friends and neighbors of similar age
- Access to community areas
- Privacy
It is often tempting to prolong decision making with the comment, “I’m not ready yet.”
Whether you select a CCRC or choose another option eventually, it is important to plan your living arrangements carefully and early so you can direct your own future.
