Plan for More Than a Move: Choosing the Right Senior Living Option

Choosing a senior living community is about much more than finding the right location or apartment. It is also about understanding the lifestyle, financial commitments and care options that will support you or your loved one in the years ahead.

Join us for a complimentary luncheon with Sandra Cook, Vice President of Marketing and Public Relations for Emerald Communities, as she explains the differences between a Life Plan Community, also known as a CCRC, and traditional month-to-month senior living.

During this conversation, you will learn how contracts, entrance fees, monthly costs, levels of care and long-term planning can differ between these options. Sandra will also share considerations around future care costs, financial predictability, aging in place and choosing a community that aligns with your personal goals.

This luncheon is especially helpful for older adults planning ahead, adult children supporting a loved one, and professionals who guide seniors and families through important transitions.
