“The entire food servers at Highpoint are awesome! I want to give a big shout out to Danica, who is always cheerful, caring and just all around fun to be around. Her giggly personality makes such a significant and positive difference. She makes the residents always feel welcome!”

“My father moved in here 2.5 months ago to the independent living building and he loves it. The staff is super friendly there are lots of things for him to do each day. There are many perks for the rent you pay and the best part is its affordable!!”

“Had a lovely meal with my mom on her first night in assisted living at the Atrium! We dined in their beautiful restaurant and watched the Artemis launch on my phone. The staff was so sweet and made her feel at ease and welcomed with this big life transition to senior living.”

How families pay for independent living in Florida

In Florida, as elsewhere, most families start by paying privately for assisted living, memory care or independent living, often drawing on savings, retirement income and, in many cases, the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a parent or spouse purchased a policy years earlier, can also help cover these costs, though the specifics of what's covered vary by policy. Veterans and surviving spouses who meet eligibility requirements may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can be applied toward the cost of care.
