Our teams work hard to ensure residents are engaged in meaningful activities and connected with their neighbours and loved ones.
A retirement residence offers an independent living community, including housekeeping services, meals, activities and care if needed. This should be distinct from long-term care (LTC). Long-term care residences cater to individuals requiring the highest level of care, including 24-hour support. In Alberta, we partner with Alberta Health Services to accommodate care needs up to a specific measure. In Ontario, LTC homes are subsidized by the provincial government, while most retirement homes are not. Today’s retirement residences are typically lively communities full of active, independent seniors who enjoy the convenience and support of communal living. Our teams work hard to ensure residents are engaged in meaningful activities and connected with their neighbours and loved ones. Residents enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing they can count on our dedicated team members if and when they need us. Prospective residents want reassurance that professionally-trained staff can provide care when needed. Still, we know this isn’t their only priority: They also seek a comfortable lifestyle in a safe yet welcoming environment, surrounded by genuinely caring people. Seasons strives to accomplish this by providing excellent customer service and being a place our residents proudly call home.
Retirement Living & Long-Term Care The Difference Between
As you start your search for senior living options, you will soon realize there are many different choices. At Seasons, we are here to help you understand what these choices mean. Retirement residences and long-term care are terms often used interchangeably to describe a senior’s home. The truth is that each option offers different types of services based on the amount of care a person needs.
