How can I make an informed choice when shopping for a retirement home?

Choose the right retirement community

Many retirement communities require applicants to pass physical and mental checks. Retirement community home applicants with cancer, strokes or dementia may have their applications rejected. Even facilities that accept people who aren't healthy do so on a space-available basis. If you are looking a joining a retirement community, it's a good idea to apply while you're still healthy. People who wait until their first health crisis to apply to a retirement community might not get in.
