Life Plan Agreement (Advantage Plan)
Continuing Care: Focusing on Today, Securing Tomorrow
Senior Living Life Plan communities are designed to remove uncertainties about the future by securing access to a variety of living options for seniors should the future need arise. Also known as continuum of care community, a Life Plan community protects older adults when their health or financial needs change over time.
Casey’s Pond conveniently offers both a Life Plan and Choice Plan (rental agreements for independent living residents.) Life plans are designed to remove uncertainties about the future, should the need arise, by securing access to a variety of living options including assisted living, skilled nursing care and rehabilitation care. As a resident of Casey’s Pond, you’d join the community as part of the independent living neighborhood. The Advantage Plan, also referred to as a Life Plan, requires a one-time entrance fee at the time of move-in. This fee offers lifetime use of apartment and common spaces within the community and priority access and discounts for care provided within our Health Care Continuum. Ask our Residency Specialist about the types of Advantage Plans available to suit your financial needs.
Benefits of a Life Plan Community
Our Life Plan Agreement guarantees residents the access to our senior living options, which include independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation.
You will start your senior living journey in an independent living apartment, where you can maintain your autonomy while enjoying the benefits of a welcoming community. If an unexpected health change occurs, you may stay in the comfort of your community, near your friends and family with access to higher levels of care.
Life Plan Communities are an excellent option for couples. Should either of you experience a health change, you are able to remain close to your spouse or partner.
Expanded Benefits
Casey’s Pond residents who have chosen the Life Plan Agreement also enjoy:
- 5 respite days for a higher level of care – per year, per person – at no additional charge while you are in residential living
- Ongoing case management by our Resident Services Team
- A discount on monthly fees (based on the current market rate) if you move to assisted living, memory support, or skilled nursing care
Understanding the Life Plan Community Contract
You pay a one-time entrance fee that is based on the type and apartment size you choose. This fee is partially refundable to you or your estate whenever you leave Casey’s Pond. You pay a monthly fee based on your floor plan that covers housekeeping, 24-hour concierge services, fitness classes, utilities, security pendant, dining, TV, and more.
-
Choice Plan Agreement (rental)
Our low-maintenance neighborhood allows residents to enjoy life while we take care of the upkeep. With our popular rental agreement, this offers a desirable month-to-month budget, whether you’re choosing independent living, assisted living or skilled nursing. This option eliminates the need for a hefty entrance fee while still providing priority access to higher levels of care when needed. The monthly rental fee covers all utilities, including basic cable and Wi-Fi, daily lunch and dinner, weekly housekeeping, life enrichment programs, access to the gym and fitness classes, and many additional amenities.
