What our family likes the most about the Foothill Retirement community is all the team work between the staff members working there. Friendly and staff that will help care for my mom's needed especially having the understanding to care for dementia seniors. Staff also understands family's concerns. Based on the experience so far, we would recommend this community to other families.

Wellness Care Senior Living at Ojai in Oak View, CA
5.0 / 5.0

My mom has been at Autumn Years for over a year now. They have been unfailingly warm and helpful, to us as well as to her. We took care of Mom for two years and understood that it wouldn't be an easy matter to work with her emotional swings, yet the staff at Autumn Years has been beyond wonderful. There always seems to be some activity going on, yet the staff gently encourages the residents to participate, never pushing. I can sense Mom's comfort with knowing her own routine and feeling cared for. Deirdre [last name removed], the director, has always taken care of everything with efficiency and kindness. I really can't recommend this facility highly enough.

Discover the many ways to pay for senior living

Planning ahead can better position you to make good choices for your loved one’s care in the future. But if your aging family member needs care now, there are ways to finance the cost of long-term care through a combination of approaches.

What is independent living?

Independent living offers a stress-free lifestyle for older adults. Independent living communities don’t provide personal care or supervision, but do offer generally healthy adults opportunities for socialization and hassle-free living. Independent living services often include:

  • Nutritious meals and snacks
  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Home maintenance and repairs
  • Social activities and outings
Complete guide to independent living

Fillmore, California

Independent Living

Many seniors may be able to live without assistance, but the financial burden of home ownership might deter them from enjoying an otherwise independent lifestyle. Independent Living Communities provide a good solution. Daily needs such as meal planning and the scheduling of social activities are accounted for, which permits residents more opportunities to live life as they desire. Along with their daily needs being met, residents can enjoy an opportunity to be among peers, in a community with others of similar age groups and backgrounds. Residents’ quarters consist of a private living space with their own kitchen. The independence of apartment life is still enjoyed, offering an opportunity to socialize with guests and visitors in a private and personal setting. While policies differ between locations, many residences allow pets as well. If medical or nursing support is desired, residents may always utilize the services of private care providers. There are a number of advantages and expenditures to keep in mind while selecting an independent living community. It is important to learn if these services are included in your service plan: initial assessment fee, meals, parking, cable TV, private phone, move-in fee, Waiting list deposit, and transportation. The amenities that pertain to independent living include restaurant-style dining hall, game/TV room, healthcare center, transportation, private rental hall, golf course, security guards, and concierge services.
