What Makes Boutique Senior Living More Than a Place To Live

Across the country, there are various designs of senior living communities, in all sizes, configurations, and with different amenities. Among the newest and most sought-after is the boutique-style senior living community. They are typically smaller buildings with a home-like feel, and typically house between 6 to 12 residents. However, this isn’t a disadvantage — boutique senior living homes cater to smaller groups for focused attention on each individual while still providing great amenities. Boutique senior living communities go to great lengths to make their environment feel like home rather than an institution. Here are some of the benefits to choosing this kind of senior living community:

A focus on your options:

Boutique senior living communities don’t offer a one-size-fits-all solution. They will usually have various plans to answer their residents’ needs and accommodate most situations. Numerous options are available, from the size of the apartment to the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as care options for assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs).  

A carefree life: 

Older adults will no longer need to shovel snow, mow that lawn, or have to deal with repairs around their home and will be able to pay attention to what truly interests them. Furthermore, many boutique senior living communities feature two or three-bedroom suites and traditional-style apartments to give them a feeling like they never left their home. Moreover, residents are also provided with security, housekeeping, activities, exercise, and much more. 

Relaxing common areas: 

Many boutique senior living homes offer common rooms to facilitate gatherings, while a large open lobby offers an inviting feel. There are also plenty of quiet places within and outside the community — perfect for chatting with the neighbors or curling up with a book.

Quality home features: 

With spacious floor plans, high-end amenities, and more, boutique senior living homes provide seniors with plenty of space to relax, feel at home, and entertain. Rather than having many residents in a larger building, space is maximized so that every resident will feel that they own a real home. 

Activities for residents:

Boutique senior living communities can offer a scheduled set of wellness, social, and educational activities, as well as flexible options based on the preferences of the residents. Some of the activities that residents enjoy include gardening, personal enrichment programs, and other kinds of celebrations and activities. 

We all envision and wish for our older loved ones to have a great life during their years of retirement, and a boutique senior living community can make that come true. It not only provides them with a real home, but it will also give older adults a true haven where they can pursue their passions and the life they won’t get anywhere else.
