worth and individuality, regardless of their race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, creed, s*x, s*xual orientation,
gender identity, gender expression, age, marital status, family status or disability.

Retirement Home vs. Long-Term Care: What’s the Difference?

✅ Retirement Homes – For independent seniors or those needing minimal support. Private-pay, offering meals, housekeeping, and activities.

✅ Long-Term Care Homes – For those needing 24/7 medical care. Government-funded with co-payment, staffed by nurses, and provides full personal care.

Retirement homes offer independence with support, while LTC homes provide medical and daily care for complex needs. Choosing the right option? Consider health, needs, and budget!
