What is a Continuing Care Retirement Community, and what are its advantages?
A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) offers seniors 62 years of age and above the opportunity to live in a residential community designed for people seeking an active, independent lifestyle. It also provides the added security of on-site short-term and long-term care if needed. Life Care residents may transfer to the Assisted Living area, Memory Care or Skilled Nursing facility if their needs change.
A CCRC provides financial security, value, flexibility, and peace of mind for residents and their families.
Do the residents own their Apartments or Garden Homes?
Residents of St. Catherine’s Village do not take title to their Apartment or Garden Home, but enter into an agreement which provides for occupancy of the living unit for as long as they are able to live independently. Residents have access to all community amenities and are guaranteed unlimited health care services in the on-site health care facility if the need arises.
I am still active and independent. Is St. Catherine’s Village right for me?
St. Catherine’s Village provides a unique opportunity for active and independent seniors to enjoy a retirement lifestyle with peace of mind for the future.
