Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is the Clairmont an independent living community, an assisted living community, or a nursing home? How do I know if their housing options and long-term care services are right for me?

The Clairmont is an independent living community (not to be mistaken for an assisted living facility). Housing at the Clairmont is ideal for people who are self-sufficient and want the added peace of mind that comes with around-the-clock emergency care. 

Unlike some senior living communities that offer multiple support programs to create a continuum of care, the Clairmont is a dedicated independent living community. An individual may not receive assisted living services (including personal care and memory) through the community directly. They may arrange their own third-party care as needed, but the Clairmont's assistance programs are limited to independent living. For more information, use the link above to make an inquiry.
