Don’t Wait: Make The Most of Independent Living

When considering making the move to an Independent Living community, a common sentiment is, “I’m not ready yet.” However, the sooner you move in, the more benefits you get to enjoy. At an Independent Living community, you’ll find opportunities to build new friendships, improve your health, and take advantage of the wonderful amenities that are available. Plus, enjoy the peace of mind of having a full range of health services available to you on campus. Moving in sooner, rather than later, will help you make the most of Independent Living. 

Keep reading for the top five reasons to make the move today: 

  1. Feel Peace of Mind
    Planning for the future isn’t easy, but being prepared can save time and stress down the road if you or your loved one’s health care needs happen to change. Brio Living Services’ Independent Living communities offer a continuum of care, so you can stay on campus and transition to the level of care you need, if necessary. This peace of mind can be priceless, so you don’t have to worry about finding care at the last minute.
  2. Make the Most of Retirement
    The longer you wait to make the move, the fewer opportunities you’ll have to enjoy the variety of amenities available at an Independent Living community. From happy hours to shopping trips, resident clubs and the salon, everything you need or want is right on campus.
  3. Experience the Benefits of Socialization 
    Socialization is especially important as we age and can benefit both your mental and physical well-being. Staying social can not only boost your mood and offer a sense of belonging, but it can also improve cognitive function, lower blood pressure, and even increase longevity. Life at an Independent Living community offers intimate neighborhoods and friendships that last a lifetime. 
  4. Enjoy a Smooth Transition
    Moving in sooner rather than later means you’ll have an easier time adjusting to the change. Waiting too long can sometimes result in anxiety, agitation, and confusion for older adults.  
  5. Enhance Your Health and Wellness
    Independent Living also offers opportunities to improve your health and wellness. Take advantage of the on-site wellness center, pool, fitness equipment, and group classes or explore the other activities designed to meet your social, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual needs.
