Planning for the Future, Your Way
Under RiverWoods Manchester’s 70% Flex Contract, residents enjoy all the benefits of independent living today, while receiving priority access to the community’s healthcare center if needs change. This flexibility allows residents to pay only for the care they use, when they use it.
If a transition to Assisted Living, Memory Care, or Enhanced Assisted Living (Nursing Care) is ever needed, services are provided below market rates.
A Full Continuum of Living Options: Everything you need when you need it
Living here means enjoying independent living now, while having a plan in place for whatever comes next. Residents value the reassurance of knowing that future care options are close by, familiar, and connected to the community they already call home.
As a Life Plan Community, we offer access to transition to additional levels of care as part of the long-term plan available to residents. This approach allows residents to make one move while knowing that supportive services are available later, should they ever be needed.
Assisted Living
A transition available if you need extra help with the activities of daily living to preserve your highest level of independence.
Memory Support
Our experienced team provides specialized programming for those living with dementia or cognitive decline for those who transition into our memory support neighborhood.
Enhanced Assisted Living (Nursing)
Enhanced care and 24/7 support is available if needed with a transition to a private room in our healthcare center.
