California Luxury & High End Senior Living Communities
If you’re considering a move to one of many California’s high end senior living communities, Neighborly Senior Placement can help guide you every step of the way.
After all, our hyper-local, proprietary senior living placement service has first-hand knowledge of the many high-quality luxury retirement communities — from Northern California to Southern California – these communities offer Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Continuing Care. Below are the four most popular senior living options and what each option offers.
Luxury Independent Living
FACT: Most Independent Senior Living Communities welcome individuals as young as 55.
Independent Living is for those seeking a robust, active lifestyle; a wide variety of social and recreational activities; and being in charge of their own care, living space, and dining options. Many of the people we serve prefer these types of amenities:
- Dining: Gourmet & Bistro, Cocktail Lounge
- Active: Swimming Pool, Fitness Center, Hiking Trails, Golf, Dog Runs
- Personal: Beauty Salon, Library, Transportation, Housekeeping
High End Assisted Living
FACT: “Assisted Living” can help you live longer, happier, and more affordably than you think.
Assisted Living is recommended for older adults who can no longer live alone, yet can comfortably maintain their sense of independence. Some people may need specific help with ADLs (Activities of Daily Living), such as bathing, eating, dressing, moving from a bed to a chair, and medication management.
Most assisted living communities provide a choice of amenities such as a swimming pool, a fitness center, pet runs, a beauty salon, a library, restaurant-style dining, music, as well as art classes. These amenities are the catalyst for a more positive attitude about life.
Plus, assisted living typically costs the same or less than if you received the same services in your current home. So, when you compare the costs of a mortgage or rent, real estate taxes, meals, help with many daily tasks mentioned above, and transportation to appointments, the costs are generally comparable.
High Quality Memory Care
FACT: The number of people who have Alzheimer’s Disease doubles every five years beyond age 65. In California, 720,000 people aged 65 and older are living with Alzheimer’s Disease.
If you or your loved one is experiencing a decline in cognitive abilities due to Alzheimer’s Disease or other forms of dementia, a memory care community can help.
Our Neighborly Senior Placement team knows that over 80% of the help provided to older U.S. adults comes from family members, friends, or unpaid caregivers. That’s why we utilize the “6C’s” to find dementia care for your loved one. “Care, compassion, competence, communication, courage and commitment” can provide therapies of compassion and patience to help enhance the quality of life, maintain dignity, and offer a level of independence within a secure environment.
Luxury Continuing Care Retirement Communities
FACT: While CCRCs are typically perceived to be expensive, the continuum of care and the long-term health benefits can help save you money over time.
Our Neighborly Senior Placement team can help explain why a CCRC’s rent, dining services, access to amenities and social activities, utilities, housekeeping, transportation, 24/7 access to support, and an on-site medical team are worthy investments.
This comprehensive, “all-in-one” approach to the level of care one may need over time –– all under one roof ––is not only a worthy investment but can also add to one’s peace of mind. For example, most aging adults are first attracted to Independent Living and its amenities. If needed, they can then gradually transition into Assisted Living, and eventually may move to Skilled Nursing Care and/or Memory Care within a CCRC.
