According to Statista, the projected number of retirees per 100 working people in the US will go from 29.4 in 2022 to 40.4 in 2050. As you can see, there's a significant increase, which means that you may be one of them soon.
Retirement doesn't necessarily mean a complete slowdown of life, though. There's care coordination available in Vista, CA that gives seniors personalized care while allowing them to retain their independence.
What we're talking about is independent senior living. This is a common type of senior care that's ideal for those who are independent and active, but need light assistance in daily life.
Typically, personal care for the elderly is offered in assisted living communities since residents get daily support services. In particular, they receive help with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as:
Obviously, in an independent living community like Arcadia Place, active seniors won't need this type of help. Instead, they'll receive light personal care services that support their independence.
What this means for independent living is that it goes beyond physical assistance; it includes emotional and social support. Not only are the staff members kind and compassionate, but the community also offers various ways to connect with others and keep up cognitive wellness.
In general, personalized care means tailoring support and services for every older adult's individual needs, preferences, and routines. This means recognizing that every senior is unique, and that they have their own health goals, interests, and comfort levels.
For an example of personalized care in practice, let's imagine a 78-year-old resident named Mrs. Johnson who's active and enjoys social events, but has mild arthritis in her hands. Here's what a day might look like for her with personalized care:
The emphasis of our independent living community is flexible independence. For example, our residents benefit from Lively™ Mobile Plus, which is a wearable device. They can go on with their daily lives without intrusion, but if they fall, they can get immediate help since the device has automatic fall detection, a one-button action for assistance, and two-way communication.

The 8 primary needs of older adults include both physical and emotional well-being, as a holistic approach is needed for good overall quality of life.
These 8 primary needs are as follows:
Luckily, we address all these needs in our senior living community. We have an emphasis on resident well-being with our various amenities and services.
What seniors need the most will depend on each individual, as we're all unique beings. However, the most essential need for older adults is a balance between independence and support. In independent living, such as Arcadia Place, there's an environment where residents thrive physically, emotionally, and socially, all without feeling dependent or isolated.
Typically, seniors need these things the most:
Self-care is absolutely necessary for seniors to maintain independence and quality of life. This is why the International Self-Care Foundation has come up with the 7 pillars of self-care. They are:
Unsurprisingly, a lot of these overlap with the 8 needs of the elderly. This holistic framework aligns perfectly with the goals of an independent living community.
If you're retiring soon but are still active and mobile, then you'd do well with personalized care at an independent living community such as Arcadia Place. Not only do we have light daily assistance, but also resort-like amenities that can make every day feel like paradise.
