Questions about The Woods at Merrimack
Independent living communities cater to residents who need minimal help or no help at all with their activities of daily living – like bathing and dressing –but do want access to the myriad of benefits and amenities that retirement communities offer. In an independent retirement community, residents rent private apartments or cottages and then take advantage of shared spaces and amenities like walking paths, on-site gyms, and restaurant-style dining.
Although residents live independently, some available services provide a more comfortable retirement, like chef-prepared meals, lawn care, home maintenance, and on-site salons. Independent living communities allow residents to experience resort-style retirement for a fixed monthly rent.
Independent living expenses vary from community to community, depending on the cost of living in that region and the floor plan the resident selects (ranging from studio apartments to two-bedroom apartments). Many residents are able to enjoy the luxury of retirement in an independent living community starting around $4,200 per month.
We encourage prospective residents to meet with their financial advisors to determine whether they can afford to move. Many residents find that they save money by selling their home and paying one low monthly fee for all the services, amenities, and utilities they need to enjoy security and adventure in retirement.
There is one primary difference between independent and assisted living: independent living residents receive no help with their activities of daily living, like bathing, toileting, and dressing, while assisted living residents need some help. Because of this difference, independent living and assisted living communities are also staffed a little differently. Assisted living communities provide nurses and nurse aides to help with the medical and personal needs of residents.
Both independent and assisted living communities offer a myriad of complimentary services, amenities, and activities that residents can enjoy in their free time. Furthermore, utilities, maintenance, laundry, and housekeeping are standard in both independent and assisted living facilities.
Each independent living facility offers restaurant-style dining, including three freshly prepared meals each day, with convenient food options available after hours for resident convenience. Gourmet menu options are available and designed to accommodate common allergies, food preferences, and doctor-ordered diets like heart-healthy, diabetic, and low sodium diets. During your visit, request to take a look at the current menu so you know exactly what to expect. In addition, many residents enjoy cooking and prepare some meals in their en-suite kitchen or experiencing the city by visiting local eateries and grills in their spare time. There is no shortage of options in and around our retirement communities!
Our independent living communities offer fun weekly outings and activities for residents to participate in. Residents can participate in entertaining activities such as board games, movie matinees, and crafts. Independent living communities can also host outings and events that include light physical activity, such as museum trips, community-hosted barbeques at a local park, walking clubs, or beanbag baseball. Events can also include restaurant outings and happy hours. For active seniors who wish to enjoy a flexible community lifestyle with others like themselves, Sunshine Retirement Living’s independent living communities are the perfect option.
