Questions families ask

What is the difference between a CCRC and a standalone assisted living community?

A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC or Life Plan Community) combines independent living, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing on one campus, usually for an entry fee plus monthly rent. A standalone community offers one level of care, typically without a large entry fee.

What is the difference between hospice and palliative care?

Palliative care focuses on symptom relief and quality of life and can run alongside curative treatment at any stage of an illness. Hospice is for a life-limiting illness, generally when a physician expects six months or less, and typically follows a decision to stop curative treatment.

Nursing home vs. assisted living: which does my parent actually need?

The determining factor is medical need, not preference. If a resident needs 24-hour licensed nursing care, or exceeds Ohio's 120-day skilled-nursing cap for assisted living communities, a nursing home is the appropriate licensed setting rather than assisted living.
