Frequently Asked Questions
PLACEHOLDER - DO NOT DELETE
What is the difference between Independent Living and Assisted Living?
Independent Living is designed for active older adults who want a maintenance-free lifestyle with access to:
- Amenities
- Social opportunities
- Services like dining and housekeeping
Residents live in private apartment homes or villas and enjoy the freedom to come and go as they please.
Assisted Living promotes independence while providing support with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as:
- Bathing
- Dressing
- Medication management
Residents receive personalized care in a supportive environment, ensuring their needs are met while maintaining a high quality of life.
What is Independent Living for seniors?
Independent Living is a lifestyle option for older adults who want to maintain their independence while enjoying a maintenance-free environment. It offers private residences – such as apartment homes or villas – along with access to exceptional amenities, social activities, and optional services like dining and housekeeping. Designed for active seniors, Independent Living provides the freedom to focus on hobbies, travel, and community engagement without the responsibilities of home upkeep.
What is the best age to move into Independent Living?
Many seniors choose to move in their late 60s to early 80s, while they’re still active and can fully enjoy the amenities, social opportunities, and conveniences of a maintenance–free lifestyle.
There’s no single “best” age to move into Independent Living – it depends on individual lifestyle preferences and goals.
Moving sooner rather than later allows for more time to take full advantage of everything Independent Living offers. Additionally, choosing a community with a continuum of care also provides peace of mind, knowing that additional support – such as Assisted Living, Memory Care or long-term care – will be available if your needs change in the future.
Does Amavida offer optional Assisted Living services?
Yes. As a full-service senior living community in Fort Myers, Amavida offers a continuum of care that includes optional Assisted Living and Memory Care should needs change over time. Residents can enjoy Independent Living in Fort Myers with added peace of mind for the future.
