Kingdom Care Senior Village
MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS
The goal of a senior village is to help its members age in place. Aging-in-place is a term you may have heard over the past few years to describe a way of senior living that does not involve moving into a senior retirement community or an assisted living facility. The term refers to a support method that assists seniors to remain in their homes as they age. Seniors of today are a much more active and independent group plus innovative developments make staying at home instead of moving a more feasible idea.
One of the most innovative developments in senior living is the “village” model. It started in 2001 by a group of Boston seniors wanting to find a way to remain in their homes, the concept has grown to over 200 villages around the United States, 13 in our city, Washington, DC with another 150 in the formative stages.
