Independent living centers or assisted living

Assisted living homes may also be referred to as a Personal Care Home, Adult Family Home, Residential Care Facility, Board and Care, Long Term Care Facilities, or Adult Congregate Care..
Most senior assisted living facilities create a unique service plan that allows residents to maintain their current lifestyle while receiving the specific services they need. The living centers regularly evaluate their residents so they can continue tailoring services to their changing needs. Costs often vary for independent living services, as does the level of care available in an assisted living facility. Assisted living costs may be part of an all-inclusive plan, or the costs of assisted living services may be charged as part of a base monthly fee.
