We’ll also provide free transportation to and from appointments to make your access to medical care outside of the community simple and convenient.a. In addition to the wellness clinic, residents at The Glenview have a whole host of exercise opportunities to choose from like swimming, water aerobics, and indoor exercise classes, including yoga, weights, and jazzercise. They can also take advantage of the fresh air by taking walks on the beach and beach paths or participating in sports and activities at the Pelican Bay Community Center (residents are automatically members!)

Retirement isnt just a milestone its the start of something truly meaningful. After decades of hard work, youve earned the right to slow down, pursue your passions, and live life on your terms.But stepping into this exciting new chapter often comes with big decisions, and one of the biggest is this:Does your current home still match the lifestyle and budget you want for this next phase?Its a timely question.

If youre thinking about how to make your retirement savings go further, those rising costs matter.Heres the good news: you may have more options and more control than you think.Many retirees are choosing to relocate to make the most of their retirement dollars. Moving to a lower-cost area (or even downsizing) can reduce major expenses like housing, utilities, and taxes, giving you more freedom to enjoy what truly matters.That could mean more travel, picking up a new hobby, spoiling your grandkids, or simply enjoying life with less financial stress.And you dont have to move across the country to make it work. For some, its about moving closer to family. For others, its trading city life for a quieter suburb where money stretches further.The key is making a plan that aligns with your retirement goals, and that starts with evaluating if your current home still serves you.Whether youre thinking about downsizing, relocating, or just exploring your options, partnering with a trusted real estate agent can make all the difference. They can help you understand your local market, simplify the selling process, and even connect you with vetted agents in other areas if youre considering a bigger move.Youve worked hard for this chapter.

Through independence, life plan communities flip the script on aging
By Sarah RichardEach May, Older Americans Month is observed to recognize the older adults in our lives. The 2025 theme, Flip the Script on Aging, focuses on transforming the way society perceives, talks about and approaches aging. This theme encourages Americans to challenge stereotypes and dispel misconceptions about the older generation, while also shining a light on the opportunities for connections, exploration and purpose that we discover as we age.Aging is a beautiful thing. With each day and each moment, you obtain a wealth of knowledge that can only come from a life of lived experiences. The thrill of life doesnt have to stop once you transition to a resort-style senior living community. In fact, its the perfect time for life to become more exciting.Transitioning into a senior living community is a unique period in your life youre setting sail on a new way of living and seeking new, enriching experiences. With a different way of living comes a wave of fresh opportunities a chance to try that hobby you've never had the time to explore, to make a new friend or to unlock hidden passions. Moving into a new community is a perfect opportunity for you to step out of your comfort zone alongside a community of like-minded individuals. When the time is right, entering a resort-style senior living community poses several benefits for retirees seeking a new experience. In a life plan community, you have the freedom to adopt a new daily routine, fall in love with a new hobby and discover lifelong friendships. Most of all, making the move to a life plan community ensures that youre taking the right steps to provide yourself with a new quality of life.What is a life plan community?Life plan communities, also known as continuing care retirement communities, are a form of senior living that offer residents the full continuum of care. Life plan communities include independent living, assisted living, memory support and skilled nursing, but older adults can enter a life plan community at any stage and transition to a different level as their needs shift. Independent living is for retirees who do not require health services but no longer want to bear the burden of home ownership and upkeep, planning the grocery list every day, or the many other things that keep you from spending time doing what you enjoy. Assisted living is for adults who require help with daily activities, such as dressing or bathing, but also desire the independence and amenities of a life plan community. Memory support is a safe and controlled environment designed to care for adults experiencing cognitive decline. Skilled nursing is for adults recovering from an illness or procedure, or those with chronic conditions that require daily attention.Through independence and enriching lifestyles, life plan communities work to break the stigma that often surrounds the concept of senior living communities and the outdated stereotype of a nursing home. Life plan communities are an entirely new way of life, from the activities and events to the people you meet and experiences you gain. Opportunity for connectionSenior living professionals understand that older adults can suffer from depression and anxiety as they age. According to the federal Centers for Disease Control, about 4% of adults aged 70 and over have depression. To combat this issue, life plan communities curate robust activity calendars that encourage residents to get out, have fun, and make connections.Socialization leads to increased mental and physical health, which is particularly important for older adults. Spending time with other people, even through a phone call or video conference, promotes sharper memory skills, lowers stress and reduces risk of chronic illnesses, while also providing a sense of purpose. Gulf Coast Village, Cape Corals only life plan community, encourages new residents to attend events so they can meet new people and become more engaged with their new home. Oftentimes, residents will form their own friend group and will continue to participate in activities together in the months and years ahead. Taking the extra step toward socialization in a new environment can be a rewarding experience, leading to increased mental wellness and enjoyed experiences. Regardless of size, life plan communities make socialization convenient for older adults to spend time with one another through a tight-knit environment, robust activities and planned events.Retirement isnt the end of the enriching life youve always lived its the beginning of a new chapter filled with fresh opportunities and meaningful experiences. At Gulf Coast Village, residents are encouraged to keep pursuing their unique hobbies and share the joy with their neighbors. Residents are invited to collaborate to create their own clubs and activities, building connections with neighbors and friends.Some residents teach art classes, some teach in the woodshop, while others volunteer part-time in our on-campus thrift store or even join a committee.In a life plan community, youre never alone. You are surrounded by fellow retirees also navigating lifes journey.About the authorSarah Richard is the executive director of Gulf Coast Village.
