While you can visit an independent living facility anytime, scheduling an appointment in advance provides a number of benefits:

• It ensures somebody is available to meet with you. Bring your questions and leave with the answers you need to make an informed decision.

• It allows for you to visit during a time that gives you a memorable experience, like the opportunity to try a meal in the restaurant-style dining room, play a game of poker, or try a yoga class at the gym.

Calling to schedule a tour in advance has its benefits, but dropping in can certainly provide insights into the daily life of a retiree in our community, too.
