Lincoln Village Senior Living

Senior living is a housing option for those who require assistance with daily activities. There are different types of care such as independent living, memory care, assisted living, and enhanced assisted living. Along with these care levels, our senior community in Port Washington, WI also provides meals, housekeeping, transportation, and other services to promote residents’ independence and well-being.

The difference between senior living communities and nursing homes is that senior communities are for mostly independent individuals who need some help with daily activities, while nursing homes offer more extensive medical care and supervision, with additional staff and services.

The average age of senior residents is 87 years old, though this can vary based on location and facility.

Some residents can move in within a few weeks, while in others it may take several months to secure a spot. The time it takes to get into assisted living can vary depending on factors such as availability, location, and level of care required.

Monthly expenses can range from a few thousand to tens of thousands of dollars. Senior community costs vary based on location, facility size, and level of care required.

Along with the different care levels, most senior communities provide a range of services, including meals, housekeeping, laundry, and aid with daily activities.

When selecting a senior community, there are many key considerations to take into account including: location, cost, available services, staff qualifications and training, and feedback from residents. Visiting multiple facilities in person is also recommended to gauge the atmosphere and quality of care.
