About the ReportAs people live longer and are less able
to cope with the demands of the living arrangements
they have had throughout their adulthood, various
alternative venues for independent or
assisted senior living have emerged. Increasingly
older persons are considering a range of new living
options, wherein they reside rather independently in
apartments or suites while relying on their designated
adult community for services. Although the types of facilities available
to older people differ in their resources, community
culture, and specific activities, all face a similar issue:
trying to ensure that their residents or clients are
satisfied with their living arrangement and ultimately
happy and functional in their new environment. The purpose of this report is to gain understanding and encourage further research on the importance of satisfaction and well-being for older adults making transitions in their residential living arrangements.
