From beautiful apartment homes and friendly neighbors to socialize with to delicious dining services and a membership to the local YMCA, Elm Terrace offers a lifestyle that helps residents live better!

Flexible Retirement Living Plan Options

Plan A – Full Lifecare:

As a Lifecare Contract holder, Elm Terrace provides these three levels of care that are available if you need it, when you need it, and without an increase in your monthly service fee. A Lifecare Contract is like a built-in insurance policy!

As a Lifecare resident, one monthly service fee includes:

Plan B – 50% Refundable Program:

With our Refundable Plan, you pay a higher entrance fee, but a lower-than-normal monthly service fee. Should you require care in the future, you will have priority access to healthcare services – available at the published per diem rates for each level. You pay only for the services that you use.

The benefit of this plan is that you secure a refund of 50 percent of your entrance fee, which may be used toward future healthcare services if needed. This plan is ideal for those with long-term care insurance coverage or with robust financial sustainability.

Our Fee for Service plan has a community fee that is completely refundable and may be used for future health care services or returned to the resident’s estate.
