More Freedom. Less Home Maintenance.
Independent Living is designed for older adults who are able to live independently but are ready for a lifestyle with less home maintenance, more convenience, and more opportunities to stay active and connected.
Residents typically live in a private apartment, cottage, or villa while enjoying services and amenities such as dining, housekeeping, transportation, activities, fitness programs, and social events.
The move to Independent Living isn’t about giving up independence – it’s about making life easier and enjoying more of it.
At Ruby Care Senior Living Advisors, we help families explore Independent Living communities that fit each person’s lifestyle, budget, preferred location, interests, and future needs – all at no cost to families.

Independent Living vs. Assisted Living
Independent Living
Independent Living generally does not include hands-on help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, toileting or transferring.
Assisted Living
Some residents may bring in outside home care or other services when additional support is needed. If regular personal-care assistance is needed, Assisted Living may be a better fit.
Benefits
More Independence, Not Less
Giving up home maintenance can leave more time and energy for the things a person enjoys.
