Retirement Homes or Old Age Homes! The Trivia

When a person decides to plan for his retirement, one of the pre-requisites is to live a peaceful, secure, no hassle, comfortable but not a boring life. What should one opt for? A retirement home or an Old age home? Which one is better for you?

All too often people get confused about the differences between Old age Home and a retirement Home.

The mention of moving to a retirement home or community to some people instantly depicts a picture of a nursing home or an Old Age Home. Often this is the reaction we get, in fact most retirement Homes are independent living type where one can live without changing their lifestyle and without leaving their comfort zone.

Let's start by looking at what's the difference between two?

Old Age Homes are geared to active adults who are 55 years or older to receive care facility or nursing. If you live in an aged care facility you need to pay Accommodation Payments (rents). Here, you don't own the place, instead you live as a tenant in an old age home where several amenities and facilities will be provided to you at a certain additional fee. To begin with you pay medical deposit for unforeseen medical expenses, a refundable or non-refundable deposit, which depends on the respective of old age home's policy (known as an Security Deposit) which will be returned to you or your nominee when you leave the facility (or die). A monthly rental for the accommodation you opt for.

The accommodation has a few choices you can opt in for

1. Single Bedroom Accommodation

2. Double Bedroom Accommodation

3. Sharing Accommodation

Rentals depend on the choice of accommodation you select.

There may be similar features like in a retirement room. For e.g. Games Room, Pool, Parks, Community room, Library, etc.

Retirement Homes are all-in-one communities which are often gated communities of detached or semi-detached homes or condo style buildings. Landscaping, mowing, etc.… is usually completed for the seniors and there are amenities offered like a golf course, swimming pool, libraries, community halls, hospital or clinics, utility aids, house cleaning, gym, convenience stores and so on. These communities usually have a social committee with planned activities for the community to participate in throughout the week or month.

These communities are for seniors who are self-sufficient, active and are looking for a few services that will help them continue to live independently like meals to opt for, laundry and transportation. These communities usually provide amenities for seniors at risk of a fall like handrails, anti-skid tiles, nurse call alarms, intercoms etc.,. Staff are usually on site to coordinate social activities and aid the residents 24 x 7.
