Other housing for seniors

Three types of housing are available for senior citizens: independent living facilities, integrated centres for the elderly (CIPAs) and nursing homes. Each type offers a different level of assistance and care. All facilities must have received government authorisation (called accreditation) in order to admit senior citizens as residents.
