A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) is a type of housing designed for older adults that offers a range of living options and care services. Residents can start in independent living and transition to assisted living or skilled nursing care as their needs change, all within the same community. This setup allows for a seamless shift in care without the need to move to a different facility. CCRCs typically require an entrance fee and monthly fees, which cover housing, amenities, and healthcare services. They promote a sense of community and provide social activities, making it easier for residents to maintain an active lifestyle while receiving the necessary support as they age.
