Understanding the Care
Care Levels at Normandy Farms Estates
Independent Living
Independent Living communities offer private apartments or cottages for older adults who are largely self-sufficient but want the convenience of maintenance-free living, social programming, and on-site amenities. No personal care or nursing is included — residents handle their own daily activities.
Assisted Living / Personal Care
Assisted Living / Personal Care (Pennsylvania's licensing term) provides help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, medication management, and meals — while preserving as much independence as possible. Staff are on-site around the clock. This level is appropriate when a parent can no longer safely manage at home but does not yet need skilled nursing care.
Memory Care
Memory Care is a secured care environment specifically designed for people living with Alzheimer's disease, dementia, or other cognitive impairments. Units are physically secured to prevent wandering. Staff are specially trained in dementia care. Activities, layouts, and routines are structured around cognitive support.
Skilled Nursing
Skilled Nursing (SNF) provides 24-hour nursing care for people with complex medical needs — post-surgical recovery, wound care, IV therapy, ventilator support, or long-term care when home care is no longer feasible. SNFs are licensed and regulated by CMS; many are dual-certified for Medicare and Medicaid.
CCRC / Life Plan
A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) — also called a Life Plan Community — offers multiple levels of care on a single campus: Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing. Residents can transition between levels as needs change without leaving the community. Entry typically requires a significant upfront fee plus monthly charges.
Why a CCRC Matters for Your Planning
When a parent moves to a CCRC like Normandy Farms Estates, the family avoids the emotionally and logistically difficult experience of relocating again if care needs increase. The trade-off is a larger upfront financial commitment — typically a significant entry fee plus monthly charges. For many families, the stability and peace of mind are worth it. An elder law attorney or certified senior advisor can help your family evaluate whether a CCRC structure fits your situation.
