What type of retirement community is NewAldaya?

NewAldaya Lifescapes is a Continuous Care Lifeplan Community. This means that we offer multiple plans to address your needs. Our Lifescapes programs include Independent Living, Assisted Living, Skilled and Rehabilitation, Extended Care, Outpatient Therapy and Memory Care.

What is the difference between a Life Plan Community and other retirement housing options?

A Life Plan Community gives a person immediate access to care and living options. For example, if Betty enters NewAldaya Lifescapes’ Independent Living Community and requires therapy or needs to make a move to Assisted Living, she can. As a member of NewAldaya’s Life Plan Community, Betty has priority access. A person in a stand-alone facility must leave one level of care and move to another community that offers a higher level of services.

What is Residential Living?

At NewAldaya Lifescapes, we define Independent Living as a life full of luxuries. You are free to live without the chores, maintenance, and upkeep that often accompany owning your own home. With the option of housekeeping, laundry and chore services, what is left to do but enjoy life? We offer one-, two- and three-bedroom living options.
