Independent Senior Living Frequently Asked Questions 

How do you plan for retirement when transitioning from your home to Independent Living?

Planning for this type of senior living requires both financial and logistical preparation. Start by reviewing your assets and understanding how a Life Plan Community model works. At Kendal on Hudson, we utilize an entrance fee and a monthly fee to cover your residence, amenities, and future health care.

Many residents use the sale of their primary homes to fund the entrance fee. It is also wise to review your long- term care insurance policy; while it typically does not cover Independent Living, it may provide benefits if you ever transition to higher levels of care. We recommend starting your search 12 to 18 months in advance to secure your preferred floor plan.

What are the benefits of Independent Living in Westchester County, NY?

Choosing this type of senior living in Westchester offers a blend of Hudson River views and easy NYC access. Residents enjoy a maintenance-free lifestyle where daily tasks, housekeeping, and laundry are handled for them, allowing more time to enjoy the cultural richness of the region.

Should you downsize for Independent Living in Westchester County, NY?

Yes. Rightsizing allows you to trade unused square footage for the extensive amenities of a continuing care retirement community. By reducing personal clutter, you can fully embrace a lifestyle, allowing you to socialize and explore.

How does Kendal on Hudson help seniors stay active in retirement?

Kendal on Hudson promotes an active lifestyle through resident-led cultural programs, fitness centers, and walking trails.
