Preparing for an appointment at a senior living community

Looking at senior living communities is exciting and this article from “Where You Live Matters” provides excellent information to help you make the most of your initial visit.

An appointment with a senior living community residency counselor is an important step in the process of deciding where you want to live. It’s a way for you to get to know the community, and for them to get to know you. The process is designed to help you decide whether a community is a good fit. You’ll be asked about your goals, preferences and budget – and you can ask all the questions you want. At a later date during the process, a health assessment may be required.

To help you make the most of your senior community visit, gather some information and write down questions before you go. Doing so will help you quickly decide if a community is right for you. Here’s what you should bring with you.
