CCRCs: CONTINUED CARE RETIREMENT FACILITIES

What Are Continued Care Retirement Facilities?


Continuing care retirement communities, also known as CCRCs or life plan communities, are a long-term care option for older people who want to stay in the same place through different phases of the aging process. Your loved one needs to be involved in the selection process.

A continuing care retirement community, also known as a life plan community, delivers independent living and an amenity-rich lifestyle with access to onsite higher-level care should medical needs progress. This continuum of care ensures residents have the stability of remaining in the place they call home.

The average initial payment is $329,000, but it can top $1 million in some communities. Once residents move in, they pay monthly maintenance or service fees that typically run from $2,000 to $4,000. Other continuing care communities operate on a rental model with no up-front fee.

The S.A.L.T. Foundation Organization began providing general contracting and construction management services to healthcare & research environments in 2001 at UT Health Science Center, San Antonio. More than 14 years later, we are still managing their small to mid-sized construction projects – to facilitate people to achieve great things. Since then, we have built strong relationships with long-term healthcare clients who trust us to manage their construction needs. When it comes to healthcare environments, we have managed everything from the installation of a state-of-the-art microscope to a reception area to a bio level 3 laboratory.

Not all general contractors are able to manage construction in a healthcare facility. The S.A.L.T.

Foundation Organization as your general contractor, you will be working with a team of professionals who have experience managing construction within extensive, occupied facilities and can develop innovative scheduling around your needs while never compromising on safety. And you will never need to mention the importance of professionalism from a general contractor when working in a healthcare environment.
