Talking To Your Loved Ones About a CCRC


A CCRC, or Continuing Care Retirement Community, is one of the many options you and your loved ones have as they get older. What separates a Continuing Care Retirement Community from other retirement options is the access to health care, housing and personal services all in one location for convenience and safety. Copeland Oaks is a CCRC dedicated to well-being and personal care. If you're considering alternative options for your loved ones in their advanced years, talk to them about choosing a Continuing Care Retirement Community.

Copeland Oaks welcomes residents 55 and over. If you are approaching this age yourself, we encourage you to make the move as soon as you feel comfortable. The goal of a CCRC is to be properly equipped for each stage of the aging process. A major contributing factor to this success is becoming a resident while you're still young and active. Taking advantage of amenities like gyms and health clinics while still in optimal health will keep you fit as you age. Establishing good, healthy habits now will make life that much more enjoyable later.

Another important function of many CCRCs, including Copeland Oaks, is the offering of assisted living services. Tying into the goal of providing lifelong care, there will come a time where you or your loved one may need help doing some of your day to day tasks. Already being located in a community that you're familiar with when you begin to need these services will make it easier to adjust.

Planning a lifetime of care after age 55 can be daunting, but you can carry on enjoying life in a place you can trust.
