Independent Living in Florida

The state of Florida offers several options for senior care, including some independent living communities and retirement communities. Throughout the state's independent senior living communities and facilities, residents and families can expect quality care and services offered, meeting residents' needs while still giving residents the freedom to continue with the activities of daily life. The average cost of residence in a Florida independent living facility ranges from $2000 to $3000 per month, though eligible residents may benefit from Medicare insurance in offsetting these costs.

 

Senior Care Options in Florida

Independent living communities are an excellent option for senior care, offering apartments for aging adults with a variety of on-site amenities and activities. In some cases, this may include assisted living services for a person with a disability or memory loss, but it more frequently includes offered meals in a centralized dining room, social activities organized by the center, and maintenance of apartments and common spaces, though information on what a given site offers is specific to that location. Unlike home care, which allows seniors to age in their current homes, retirement communities with independent living services are restricted by age, allowing aging adults to connect with one another. Nursing homes differ from independent living in that they offer more frequent staff interaction with residents and that residents would likely have a less private unit in a nursing home than the apartments offered by independent living communities. Independent living facilities may not have the type of medical professionals on-site that a skilled nursing facility may offer, but are still a great option for seniors looking for a change of pace at this time in their life.
