Independence is emphasized
Independent Living means residents handle medications and medical care.
Reviews repeatedly describe the community as independent living, with residents expected to be able to care for themselves for the most part. One reviewer notes that staff are not caregivers and that families are responsible for medications and medical needs, while another says there is no medical staff on duty. Other reviews still describe support for lighter tasks like help with laundry, hair, or minor issues, alongside continued freedom to go out when residents want.
