Searching for Self

Freedom, independence and choice: most of us would agree that we all desire to live our retirement years with these things and more. Yet, even in our later years when we’re no longer working or taking care of children, we may find we are still aren’t living each day exactly how we’d like to.

Responsibilities associated with homeownership like cleaning, general maintenance and even yard work may take up a significant amount of your time and energy. If you no longer drive, you may find it inconvenient getting to the grocery store, appointments or social occasions, and would prefer not to rely on family members for assistance. Or—if you live alone—you may even discover you’re less eager to cook a full dinner for yourself and perhaps don’t feel safe alone.

For all of these reasons and more, including the need for any personal support meant to make your life more comfortable, now may be the right time for you to embrace the benefits of a lifestyle in a Chartwell retirement community—where you are empowered to decide what aspects of daily life you want support with so you can instead focus on what brings you the most happiness in life.
