As you progress through retirement, you may reach a point where you can acknowledge it is no longer safe to live at home by yourself. You also may not want to move in with your adult children or any of your grandchildren, however.
Instead, you want to remain relatively free to live your daily life as you see fit, all the while knowing help is close at hand if you ever need it. You may get the lifestyle you envision for yourself at this stage of your retirement when you move to a community that offers independent living in Wilmington for people in your age demographic.
Daily Independence
When you move to this type of community, you may still have the freedom to live each day as you see fit. You can get up when you want and also go wherever you need to go without having to report to anyone. You can also live in your own unit without having to share space with anyone else.
However, you also have help close by if you fall or get sick and need someone to assist you with tasks like bathing or dressing. You avoid the worry of lying on the floor of your home for hours or days before anyone finds you.
You can find out more about independent living in Wilmington online. To get an idea of what your daily life might look like, contact Porters Neck Village at
