Can My Family Member Receive Assistance in Independent Living Care?

Independent living communities are designed for senior citizens who do not need assistance. At New Horizons at Marlborough, we do have 24-hour staff available if there is an emergency, which is rarely offered at other independent living care communities in Massachusetts. Typically, at other independent living communities, residents will need to make their own medical arrangements or find nursing care. If your loved one is 55+, independent living might be a great option, as he or she can live independently while choosing to join in on communal activities. Additionally, all the maintenance work is done for them such as lawn mowing and snow removal.

Benefits of an Independent Living Community

Aside from not having to worry about maintenance, there are a variety of benefits when residing at an independent living community. There’s more room for socialization, as independent living communities offer plenty of activities ranging from trivia nights to book clubs to cocktail hours.

One of the biggest perks at New Horizons is the all-inclusive rent which means TV, internet, heat, electric, and water are bundled into the monthly rent. Seniors don’t have to worry about attending to these bills and can spend time enjoying their day.
