Common Senior Living Services & Amenities
Continuing care retirement communities tend to offer more extensive services and amenities than other senior living communities. Common services at CCRCs include things like security and emergency services, dining options for breakfast, lunch and dinner, housekeeping, banking and postal services, on-site social, recreational and educational activities, and transportation.
CCRCs also take pride in the amenities they provide to residents such as fitness facilities, common areas, barber shops and beauty salons, convenience stores and outdoor spaces. Don’t hesitate to ask questions about available services and amenities when evaluating a community.
Questions to Ask About Services & Amenities
While expectations for services and amenities tend to vary, we have compiled a list of questions you should consider asking any senior living community, including Querencia at Barton Creek.
Potential services and amenities questions to ask a senior living community include:
- What services do you offer that make you stand out from other communities?
- What amenities are most popular with residents? What amenities are you most proud of?
