HOW LIFE CARE BENEFITS YOU

The Power of a Plan.

Choosing a Life Plan Community offering Life Care contracts is a way for you to take charge of your future. You’re choosing where and how you’ll live now—and you’re ensuring you’ll be part of a continuum of care that will be there for you if your health needs change. You and your family won’t have to worry about where to find quality care or how to pay for it. You already took care of all that.

How it Works

Through the payment of a one-time entrance fee and predictable monthly service fees, independent living residents are guaranteed priority access to on-site assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing for as long as they need it. One of our residents put it this way: “I’m taken care of—always.”

How It Benefits You

  • You and your family know you’ll get the quality, affordable care you need, right here at The Woodlands.
  • You’ll see substantial savings compared to the average cost of private nursing care.
