About Carlsbad by the Sea
Carlsbad by the Sea is a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC).
A Continuing Care Retirement Community offers multiple levels of care that allow an individual to "age in place." This type of retirement community gives active seniors the ability to enjoy a carefree, independent lifestyle with the knowledge that all of their needs will be met should their health care situation change. CCRCs usually provide independent living, assisted living, and nursing and rehabilitative care for their residents on one campus.
In a CCRC, one will typically find single-family homes, cottages, townhouses, duplexes or apartments for residents who are active and independent. You will also find an Assisted Living Residence for individuals needing help with daily activities in a supportive environment, and a Nursing Home for those who require rehabilitation and 24-hour nursing care. Residents of a CCRC are able to move from one level of care to another, based on their individual needs.
CCRC contracts vary from long-term, all-inclusive Lifecare agreements to rental arrangements with assisted living and nursing home coverage paid for at the time of need. In addition to a monthly maintenance fee, a substantial entrance fee is usually required. CCRCs assess each prospective resident's health and financial situation to ensure a proper fit with the services offered and the fees required.
