Frequently asked questions.
What is an independent living community?
An independent living community is the perfect place for active seniors who are able to enjoy an active life and want the total freedom of a carefree retirement lifestyle. Home maintenance and yard work become a thing of the past, and the community provides a wide range of services and amenities—including dining, a full calendar of social opportunities and entertainment, transportation, cleaning, health and wellness activities, security, and more—so residents can truly live the lives they want to live. Are you ready or independent living? Check out our blog to learn about six signs you’re ready for independent living.
What’s it like to move into a life plan community?
When you move into your residence at a life plan community, you will receive a variety of services such as dining, housekeeping, scheduled transportation, maintenance and security, and have access to a whole array of incredible amenities and social, wellness and educational activities. You will live independently and enjoy the lifestyle you create for yourself. But the unique benefit of a life plan community is the access to a continuum of care right on the same campus if and when it’s needed. For instance, Freedom Village Bradenton provides this continuum of care, including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, short-term rehab, and long-term care. Transitioning among these levels of care is simple and seamless, and you will always have the peace of mind knowing that you will be receiving care surrounded by friends and staff who know you.
How much does it cost to live in a retirement community?
Costs can vary widely depending on the community and the services offered.
A life plan community (like Freedom Village Bradenton) typically offers a residency agreement with a one-time entrance fee along with a monthly payment that covers the services provided. The entrance fee and monthly fee will vary depending on the size of the residence and the number of occupants. When needs change, care is provided on site from people you already know and trust. In addition to an entrance fee, a monthly fee covers community maintenance, dining programs, and access to all the services and amenities of the community. Refundability of your entrance fee will vary by Residency Agreement selected.
