Find the right extended care now

The latest statistics say 58 percent of people in Assisted Living only stay 18.5 months before moving to a Long-Term Nursing facility. “It is a disturbing thing to move the person you love twice,” says Ray Boshco, whose wife Janet needed to move from Assisted Living to Long- Term Nursing Care.

Why not find a place that offers Assisted Living plus a complete continuum of care—in case you ever need it?

No driving needed to visit
That’s what you find at Henry Ford Village’s own extended care neighborhood, Renaissance Gardens. Your loved one can start with Assisted Living and (if needed) transition to Long-Term Nursing Care.

“I just walk over, either outside or through the climate- controlled walkway,” Ray says.

Each spouse stays busy
Janet has a private room, where Ray likes to sing to her. In addition, “There are all sorts of activities for her, including shows. The nurses are outstanding. They make sure she is fed, dressed, and her hair combed,” he says.

When Ray isn’t with Janet he enjoys life on the main campus. “You can be as busy at your Erickson community as you want with the library, computer club, Fitness Center, and so on,” he says.
