How to Choose the Best Assisted Living Home Location to Retire
Selecting the right place for your retirement home is a highly personalized decision. You might begin by researching the ideal places for retired life on the Internet; however, these online resources may focus on more general, geographical information. While crime rates, cost of living, medical facilities, state and local taxes are significant aspects of the decision making process, there are other personal factors that might be important to you. Our experienced assisted living team in Rhode Island provides valuable insights on what to look for in a retirement home.
- Location: Want a quiet spot? First check for medical facilities in the area. They should be within reasonable driving distance. The type of neighborhood is of critical importance. Make sure the location supports seniors’ needs such as convenient transportation facilities, shopping, recreation and volunteer opportunities. This will make your golden years more enjoyable. If you are moving into a retirement home like Wyndemere Woods, you do not have to worry. Our assisted living facility in Rhode Island is both comfortable and convenient. Not only are we a short distance from local facilities and in a safe community but we also provide transportation for scheduled shopping and entertainment activities.
- Climate: When it comes to weather, we all have our individual preferences. Rhode Island is on the borderline between humid sub-tropical and humid continental climates with warm summers and mild winters. It is an ideal place to retire.
- Local attractions: Ensuring that your retirement spot provides the opportunity to do the things you like is important. In Rhode Island for instance, there is plenty to do. Museums, the theatre, state parks, etc. cater to diverse interests.
- Age-friendly retirement home: From grab bars in your toilet and shower area, to anti-slip mats and area rugs, precautions must be taken to prevent slips and falls. Staircases and all access areas should be free of obstacles and well-lit. Assisted living facilities are specially designed for individuals with infirmities which makes it safe and convenient to get around.
