What is a CCRC?
A continuing care retirement community (CCRC) like Four Seasons is a unique option for senior living. CCRCs offer quality senior housing, freedom from the responsibilities of home maintenance, and the security of an on-site continuum of health care.
CCRCs provide seniors age 62 and over with:
- The privacy of an apartment and the companionship of community life
- A wide range of helpful services, such as housekeeping, transportation, and home maintenance
- A variety of amenities, such as an exercise area, library, inter-denominational chapel, and dining venues
- A full calendar of engaging activities, from parties and trips to educational opportunities
- A continuum of on-site health care that often includes assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation services
Some CCRCs are owned by investors and managed by other companies. Others, like Four Seasons in Indiana, are both sponsored and managed by a single entity, often a non-profit like BHI Senior Living.
Like many other CCRCs, Four Seasons collects a one-time entrance fee that entitles our residents to occupy their selected homes; use the common area amenities, programs, and services; and make use of our health care continuum (including access to physicians’ offices, temporary rehabilitation, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing). The entrance fee may be partially refundable, depending on the plan chosen. In addition, our retirement community’s monthly fee covers other important items like utilities and indoor and outdoor maintenance. A rental plan is also available with all of the apartments at Four Seasons.
