Senior Living Options for Couples as Needs Change
When you choose to share your life with someone, it’s a big commitment. Many couples vow to stand by one another in sickness and health, and in good times and bad.
Adults know firsthand that life isn’t always sunny. But having the right partner by your side can make even the toughest challenges easier to face.
Long-term partnerships also mean you’ll learn and grow together as you navigate life’s journey. Navigating changes together can make you a stronger team. Sometimes, couples considering senior living undertake this transition with different daily care needs.
If you’re considering a move into senior living for yourself or a couple you love, this issue may be on your mind.
LSS Kensington Place can allay your concerns about senior living for couples with different needs. Learn how we address this issue in our community.
Senior living options for couples
Senior living allows you to choose your lifestyle and level of care, so you can enjoy your retirement years on your own terms, with support and security to live in comfort and ease.
Senior couples pursue senior living for different reasons. Some seek the freedom offered by independent living. Others transition proactively to ensure their needs are always met. Often, one half of a couple has more daily care needs than their partner. If this is your situation, you may worry choosing senior living will mean living separately.
Thankfully, this isn’t the case at LSS Kensington Place. We recognize that we all age differently and experience our own triumphs and challenges. When you’ve chosen to share your life with someone, you don’t want that to change. We believe it doesn’t have to.
In our Columbus, Ohio senior living community, you can each receive the level of care you need to thrive, all while continuing to live together. Our independent living community also offers access to assisted living care. Unlike some communities, we seamlessly provide these services without requiring you to relocate to another apartment or community.
This means couples with different levels of need can reside together, without worrying that daily needs will go unmet.

Assisted living for couples with different needs
For many senior couples in the past, having different levels of need meant living apart.
Thankfully, modern senior living communities increasingly recognize this isn’t optimal for happiness or quality of life. Today, many senior living providers are finding ways to keep couples together, even if one partner has more daily care requirements.
Knowing you can continue to reside with your life partner while getting the support you both need can help ease your transition from home into senior living. This option also reduces caregiving duties for the partner who may have taken on an increased caregiver role at home.
At LSS Kensington Place, assisted living and memory care level support and care work seamlessly and harmoniously alongside independent living. So, you can both get what you need to live in comfort and security.
