When a senior you love needs additional support to live well, there are several options available that can be custom-tailored to suit his or her needs. Today, the experts from Hillview Health Care Center in La Crosse, WI, will explain the difference between nursing home, independent living and assisted living facilities. 

3 Types of Senior Living Facilities 

Independent Living

Independent living at Carroll Heights Apartments offers seniors a vibrant social community, lavish amenities, and fully-equipped, private, spacious apartment units. Independent housing is perfect for seniors who are interested in remaining active and engaged in the community while lightening the burden associated with home ownership. Since these resort-style apartments come with a host of features and amenities, many seniors consider these an upgrade from current living situations. These apartments are intended for those seniors who live mostly independently and have few medical issues requiring assistance. 

Assisted Living

Some seniors over 62 require some additional support to navigate day-to-day tasks and live safely but do not require extensive, 24/7 care. For these individuals, Hillview Terrace Assisted Living lends the ideal solution. This assisted living community helps seniors thrive socially, physically, and mentally, without sacrificing their independence. 

Nursing Home Care

Some seniors may require extensive medical care day and night. For these individuals, nursing home care offers the support they need. Complete with qualified nurses and support staff to aid in everything from cooking nutritious meals to helping with bathing and laundry, these facilities help keep residents happy and healthy.
