A Life Plan Community, also known as a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), is a full-service senior living community that combines an independent lifestyle with access to a full continuum of on-site care. Residents can enjoy the privacy of their own home, community amenities, and a calendar of social activities, all while having peace of mind knowing that high-quality health services like skilled nursing and rehabilitation are available if their needs change.

The difference between a Life Plan Community and an active adult community lies in the level of services and on-site care provided.

• Life Plan Communities are designed for seniors of various ages, offering spirited independent living with access to other living options and health services such as skilled nursing, home care, and rehabilitation. These communities provide a wide range of services like housekeeping, dining, and transportation, allowing for a maintenance-free lifestyle.
• Active adult communities are designed for adults aged 55 and over, offering an independent lifestyle with opportunities for social connection and wellness. They offer a variety of convenient amenities, but residents are usually responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of their own homes. These communities do not provide a full spectrum of on-site healthcare services found at a Life Plan Community.

The key difference between independent living and assisted living is the level of daily support needed by the individual.

• Independent living is for active, self-sufficient seniors who want to enjoy convenient services and social opportunities in a senior community. They do not require daily assistance with personal tasks.
• Assisted living is for seniors who can maintain a largely independent lifestyle but need help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or managing medications.

The cost of independent living at The Atrium at Navesink Harbor is determined by a few factors, including your chosen apartment size, location, and contract type. All residents pay a one-time entrance fee and an ongoing monthly service fee.

• The entrance fee secures your residence and provides priority access to on-site health care services if you need them in the future.
• The monthly service fee, which is based on the size of your home and the number of occupants, covers most of your living expenses in a single, predictable payment.
