How can I help my family understand the reasons for my move?

We understand that the decision to move to a retirement community is a big one, and you want to make certain that your family is on board and supportive of your decision. Open communication and dialogue is important. Discuss with them your reasons for considering the move, whether because of health concerns, home maintenance issues, or your desire to be a part of a vibrant active community. Make sure that they are well informed about how Deerfield can help you deal with those concerns. We welcome them to tour Deerfield to not only see our outstanding facility, but to meet our professional, caring staff, as well as fellow residents who have happily made the choice to live at Deerfield. Seeing is believing, and a short visit will go a long way in helping them affirm your choice. Remember, they have your best interest at heart and want to see you happy and well-adjusted.

I want to live a healthier, happier retirement.

Deerfield is committed to providing amenities, programs and activities that contribute to your health and well being–body, mind and spirit. Deerfield residents’ diverse interests are reflected in the broad range of classes and events offered on our campus. You’ll find interest groups with such varied topics as art, dancing, books, investing, pottery and woodworking to name just a few. Fitness classes include Tai Chi, Pilates, and yoga, and the Aquatic Center offers a range of swimming and water-fitness classes weekly.

Why is a continuum of care important to me for the future?

As a Life Care community, Deerfield offers all levels of health care on-site, if you should ever need it. And we help protect your finances, by maintaining your monthly costs no matter what level of care you need. You can take comfort in knowing where and with whom you will get your care.

The Life Care benefit assures the availability of assisted living or short or long-term nursing care in the Deerfield on-site health center at the same monthly rate as in the apartment or cottage. You pay only for the additional two meals per day during the stay in any level of care in the Deerfield health center and any ancillary health care services not included in your Monthly Fee. Upgraded accommodations in health care are available at an additional charge.

I still have more questions.

Deerfield’s caring staff is ready to discuss your thoughts about a potential move to our community with you, your children and loved ones. We can provide the information needed to comfort any fears and concerns regarding your decision. Let us know any additional questions you may have, or give us a call for more information.
