Exploring the Path to Senior Living: A Comprehensive Look at Independent Living and Assisted Living
The article examines senior housing options, detailing the distinctions between independent living and assisted living, along with the emerging "independent assisted living" model that blends both approaches. It highlights the importance of assessing individual needs, preferences, and financial factors in making informed decisions about suitable living arrangements for seniors.
The deductibility of assisted living expenses on taxes hinges on factors like the individual's medical condition and service nature, typically requiring the resident to be "chronically ill" per IRS definitions.
