Idaho Falls Independent Living Q&A

The difference between independent living and assisted living care is that assisted living care generally provides more assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), like bathing, dressing, and medication management, etc.

Seniors can pay for independent living costs using a variety of methods, including personal funds, retirement savings, Social Security benefits and pensions, and more.

According to recent data, Idaho Falls is a good place to live, ranking safer than 34% of other U.S. cities.

Assisted living care costs can be more expensive than independent living costs, as assisted living provides a higher level of care to seniors who often need assistance with their activities of daily living (ADLs).
