Lets face it, the thought of moving away from your home and into a senior living community can be a daunting decision.
For many people that are 65 and older, contemplating a move can seem like the last chapter of a well-read book; however, most people have say, I wish I wouldve made the move a lot sooner!Get Out 2017 streaming

I have been told that there are many benefits to moving out of a private home and into a community that is geared towards mature adults:

After I moved in, I met so many wonderful new friends. I didnt realize how lonely I was and what I was missing by myself.
There is a sense of community here. If I am not feeling well, someone is around to check on me, bring me a cup of soup.
I feel safer here- the building has around the clock staff and they look out for us.
You get accustomed to all the work at home the cleaning, cooking, yard work, house maintenance, all of it. I felt like I was on vacation when I moved in. If I want to cook, I cook, but I dont have to. I can eat at the restaurant downstairs instead. I dont have yard work and they even help me with weekly cleaning. I am spending time doing things I like to do I have even started sewing again.

Of course, there are many considerations such as price, location and property amenities to think about before making a move. Where you live matters (www.whereyoulivematters.org) is a website that offers an unbiased, research-based, and thought-provoking resource to help guide you toward a smart and confident decision. (whereyoulivematters.com home page content, 12.27.2016.)

Are you considering a specific community? Why not ask about a try before you rent short-stay? This can be extremely helpful in making a final decision.

Finally, remember that making a move to a retirement community doesnt have to be the last chapter in your lifes book; it could mean an exciting sequel that has yet to be written!
