Helping You Choose

here are several types of over 55 housing and care options for senior living, each offering services specific to the clientele they serve. Finding the right option for you or your loved ones can be daunting, so the more you understand, the better you can make the choice that's right for you and your family. Seniors who are attracted to a retirement community are usually motivated by (1) the desire to reduce the upkeep and maintenance on a home, (2) a medical or health event that causes concern for security and safety, (3) the desire to end isolation in order to live around others and be near family.

Getting Started

Speak with your family or trusted professional advisors to discuss your retirement living options: staying in your home, downsizing to an apartment or condo, moving in with family or moving to a senior community. There are advantages and challenges to every option and even the answer that's right for you today may be different later. At Sierra Pointe, we hope these articles below help provide a senior living roadmap for you and your loved ones.
