Fact vs Myth: CCRCs are just social Clubs for retirees

Myth: “CCRCs are just social Clubs for retirees.”

Fact: Along with many fun things to do and be involved in, including volunteering and helping others, there are opportunities for learning, enrichment and service. New friends and neighbors (and staff) become like an extended family. The social aspect is one of the most important benefits of living at a CCRC. Instead of living alone in your home, in a neighborhood where your friends have moved or passed away, you can live in a beautiful community, such as Westminster Village, where you have access to not only health care and the security of never being along, but also having access to friends and social, cultural and spiritual activities right outside your door.
