November 9, 2023 —When seniors move to a Lifecare Community, they are able to throw away the hassles of homeownership, frustrations of everyday life and everything that holds them back from experiencing their full potential. Instead of spending time dealing with trivial things, they can instead explore their passions, embrace each day and live it to the fullest while enjoying the lifestyle they desire and deserve.
“Lifecare Communities allow seniors to become truly carefree,” says Cathleen McGaffigan, Director of Sales and Marketing at Kendal on Hudson, the only true Lifecare community in Westchester County. “Here, they can not only enjoy the peace of mind of knowing we can meet all their health needs in the community they know and love, but that we also offer a variety of services and amenities to enhance their daily life. From maintenance and housekeeping, delicious meals and engaging programming, it’s hard not to focus on living the life you love and exploring all there is to see and do.”
