Question 4

What's the difference between senior apartments and a nursing home?

Accepted Answer

Senior Apartments is for older adults who need help with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication reminders) but don't require 24/7 skilled medical care. Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs) provide ongoing medical care from licensed nurses for residents with serious medical conditions or post-hospital recovery needs. Many Aventura families start with senior apartments and transition to skilled nursing if care needs increase.
