GreenFields of Geneva Offering a Home for Life,

GreenFields of Geneva is offering a unique option for individuals moving directly into Willows Assisted Living at GreenFields.

GreenFields of Geneva is offering a unique option for individuals moving directly into Willows Assisted Living at GreenFields. Qualifying new residents have the opportunity to buy a Life Care plan which guarantees that they will have a home for life, even as their health care needs change.

“Most communities offer rental arrangements for assisted living,” said Julio Macias, sales director for GreenFields. Unfortunately, that might mean that as the resident’s healthcare needs change, he or she may have to find another place to live to receive additional care.

“It’s GreenFields’ philosophy that if someone makes a commitment to us by buying Life Care, we’ll make a commitment to take care of them for the rest of their life,” Macias said. Life Care residents pay an entrance fee, as well as monthly fees. Ninety percent of the entrance fee is refunded when the apartment is reoccupied.

New residents also are able to participate in the rental-only program, paying a monthly rate, which is slightly higher than that in the Life Care plan. “Prospective residents at a community are shocked to learn that when they’re renting only, there’s no promise for the next level of care. And that change in one’s requirements is likely to take place at a time when you really need some continuity and familiarity. Rather than having to find a new home, we will guarantee care up until one’s last days,” said Macias.

GreenFields of Geneva offers a complete continuum of care including independent living, assisted living, memory support, rehabilitation and skilled care. “Another distinguishing feature of GreenFields is that all levels of care are offered under one roof,” said Macias. “This also means that all residents have access to the same amenities, programs and activities, and enjoy friendships across all levels of care.”
