Frequently Asked Questions about Life Care

Life Care is a type of contract offered by select CCRCs — including Galloway Ridge — that provides residents with predictable, long-term healthcare costs. Under a Life Care contract, if your health needs change and you require a higher level of care, such as assisted living, memory care, or skilled nursing, you receive that care on campus at little to no increase in your monthly service fee, depending on your contract type.

Life Care essentially means you are investing in your future care today — protecting yourself from the unpredictable and often significant costs of long-term care.

A Life Plan Community is the modern term for a CCRC. It reflects the proactive, lifestyle-oriented approach these communities offer. Rather than focusing solely on care, a Life Plan Community like Galloway Ridge emphasizes wellness, engagement, purpose, and planning — empowering residents to live their best lives while knowing that a full continuum of care is available if and when they need it.

A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) is a type of senior living community that provides a full continuum of care — from independent living to assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing — all in one location. CCRCs are designed so that residents can age in place without needing to relocate as their health needs change. Galloway Ridge is a CCRC that offers the added benefit of a Life Care contract, which provides predictable, long-term healthcare costs.
