Continuing Care Retirement Communities

Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC) are residential communities that offer a long-term contract to provide a continuum of care — from private units to assisted living and then skilled-nursing care, all in one location. CCRCs offer active seniors an independent lifestyle, coupled with the reassurance that extra assistance and health care will be provided as needed.

CCRCs offer some distinct advantages, including physical and financial security, independence and access to health care, companionship of friends and neighbors of similar age and access to community facilities and privacy.
