Independent Senior Living FAQs

What is the difference between independent living and assisted living?

Independent living at Wellspring is best suited for seniors who are still able to care for themselves, but want more of a maintenance-free lifestyle. Assisted living offers consistent, hands-on support from a caregiver for those who struggle to complete activities of daily living (ADLs).

What is the cost of independent living at Wellspring?

At Wellspring, senior living plans are developed to be unique to each individual. For this reason, the cost of independent living can greatly vary. For an estimate, please contact us or make an appointment to visit one of our care facilities.

How is freedom preserved in an independent living community?

Our top priority at Wellspring is making seniors feel at home in our independent living communities. Residents are encouraged to decorate their apartments with their own furniture and belongings, and small pets are able to come along as well. With our facilities all being conveniently located, seniors can easily leave the premises to independently enjoy shopping, restaurants, churches, parks, and more.
