For the rental CCRC option, you pay a monthly rental fee based on the level of care and services you need— with no buy-in fee. That means you or a loved one move into whatever level of care you need—for instance, assisted living or skilled nursing.  For the Life Care program, you’ve got two costs to consider, and even more financial gains.  Let’s start with the upfront buy-in fee. The amount of the fee depends on your floor plan, services, and the Life Care contract you choose. The other cost is the monthly service fee, which is based on the type of accommodations and your level of care.  With our Life Care option, you can make your assets last longer. And you get our care for life guarantee.* This unique benefit guarantees that even if your financial resources are eventually exhausted due to no fault of your own you’ll still have the care you need.* Whether you choose a rental or Life Care option, our community has the lifestyle you want and the care you need. *The Life Care guarantee is subject to the terms and conditions of the Residency Contract.
