Couples Care Residences

Couples care residences allow spouses to remain together even when they have different levels of care needs, preventing the heartbreaking separation that can occur when one partner requires more assistance than the other. These specialized living arrangements provide customized care plans for each individual while honoring the importance of maintaining the couple's relationship and shared daily life. Despite this tremendous benefit, couples in these settings often experience changes in their social circles and connection with extended family.

Maintaining engagement with the broader family becomes especially meaningful for couples in senior living, as it helps preserve their shared family identity beyond their relationship with each other. Activities that both partners can enjoy together, regardless of differing abilities, create valuable shared experiences and conversation topics. Regular communication with children, grandchildren, and friends helps couples feel connected to their family story and creates ongoing opportunities to share their wisdom and experiences with younger generations.
