Retirement Village vs Aged Care
As the demands of maintaining your home and garden become increasingly challenging
- perhaps friends, neighbours and family start moving away …
- it may be time to consider lifestyle options that enable a fresh, new start to another exciting chapter in your book of life.
Apart from moving in with family or friends, there are generally two structured options available:
- Retirement Village Living
- Aged Care
Essentially this decision is determined by the state of your:
- Physical health
- Mobility
- Mental well-being
- Level of independence
Life in a Retirement Village
Sea change or tree change – joining a retirement village community means that you will find active and independent people at a similar stage in life.
The coterie you choose to mix with may be…
Vibrant, active and dynamic OR Restful, relaxing and peaceful OR A bit of both
The choice is entirely up to you . . .
Your budget and retirement dreams will largely determine the location, size and quality of the village and the home you choose.
