A Life Plan Community, also known as a CCRC, delivers independent living and an amenity-rich lifestyle with guaranteed access to higher-level care as your health care needs progress. This continuum of care ensures residents have the stability of remaining in the place they call home. When you move to a Life Plan Community you enter into a Life Care Contract, which will provide residents with a predictable monthly service fee in healthcare if and when you need it. Not only will you have preferred access to assisted living, memory care or long-term skilled nursing care, when you need it, you’ll receive care, all for one flat monthly service fee, which is in line with what you pay in independent living

The decision to move to a Life Plan Community requires a great deal of consideration. Here are the major benefits of a Life Plan Community:

• It offers independent living with various residential options. Our community will offer one- and two-bedroom homes and two-bedroom Villa homes.
• It ensures access to advanced healthcare support, such as assisted living, memory care, long-term care (nursing home), and short-term skilled rehab at the Josephine Stanwood campus.
• It increases social engagement and expands your social network with a wide range of activities and amenities.
• It creates a maintenance-free lifestyle, as cooking, cleaning, house, and yard work are provided. Our community will also have an indoor pool/hot tub, theater room, fitness room, outdoor fire pits, outdoor BBQ area, dog run and beautifully landscaped grounds with plenty of walking paths.
• It offers potential tax benefits.
• It provides peace of mind and security for the residents and their caregivers. You are guaranteed care in assisted living or the other levels of care when you need it. And you will never be asked to leave should you run out of money.

Our residents have guaranteed unlimited access to our full continuum of healthcare services, including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation.

Independent living: You want to move into a Life Plan Community while you are still independent. Active, healthy older adults enjoy the Life Plan Community amenities and maintenance-free benefits, all while living unassisted in their choice of residence.

Assisted living: If your care needs increase, assisted living provides additional support services. While residents are encouraged to be as independent as possible, staff members are available to help with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, or medication management. Assisted living is provided in private home-style accommodations.

Memory care: Those living with memory loss due to dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or other cognitive impairments can transition to the Life Plan Community’s memory care neighborhood. Specially trained staff provide personalized care with a focus on keeping residents comfortable, engaged, and safe.

Long-term skilled nursing: As healthcare needs progress long-term skilled nursing provides 24/7 care to meet increasing healthcare needs.

Short-term care: Focused on short-term care and rehabilitation, it services, for example, residents needing post-surgery wound care, physical or speech therapy after a stroke, or intravenous medication administration. Residents return to their independent or assisted living home after a short-term stay.

Your entrance fee gives you guaranteed access to care as you age, and at a considerably lower price than market rate. It’s a safety net for your future care. It allows you to live at the community even if you’ve run out of funds. Many residents sell their existing homes to finance the entrance and monthly service fees associated with a Life Plan Community.

The monthly service fee covers the cost of daily living and all of the community amenities including:

• Weekly housekeeping, including changing of bed linens
• Full gourmet kitchen and washer/dryer
• All Utilities including heat & A/C, which you control in your home
• Private, 1-car garage
• 24-hour security, gated community, and emergency alert system
• Interior and exterior maintenance
• Property taxes
• Concierge services
• Group & point-to-point transportation services
• Fitness center with instructors and classes
• Heated pool and spa
• Life-enriching activities, social events, and educational program
• Flexible meal plan where you can eat in the restaurant, bistro or bar
