Why Timing Matters
When is the best time to move to a life plan community? The answer may surprise you: when you’re active, and ready to make the most of every day. By choosing Otterbein while you’re independent, you’re not just selecting a home, you’re securing a care plan with trusted partners (staff) who will know you as a unique individual long before you might need their support.
For many, one of the major draws to choosing a life plan community, also known as Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs), is that once you are part of the community, you can stay in the same community indefinitely, even as your care needs change. Couples find special comfort knowing they can remain together, and our flexible contract options ensure you find the perfect fit for your housing and care preferences.
Weighing the Benefits
The Impact of a Life Plan Community
Research reveals a powerful truth: residents in life plan communities don’t just maintain their quality of life, they enhance it. Studies show that social connections often strengthen and multiply during the first five years of community living, creating a ripple effect of wellness that touches nearly every aspect of daily life.
Compared to older adults aging in place at home, life plan community residents experience:
- Rich social engagement – meaningful friendships and stronger support networks that grow year after year
- Enhanced wellness – better physical, emotional, and vocational health
- Lifelong learning – more opportunities for intellectual growth, improved brain health, and new experiences
- Greater resilience – lower stress levels and improved ability to navigate life’s challenges

The Pillars of Life Plan Living
Accessibility:
Spaces are thoughtfully designed to adapt as you do. Your home evolves with your needs without the hassle of renovations.
Budget Stability:
Many essentials — housing, activities, and maintenance — are covered in your monthly fee, with transparent pricing for any additional services. Budget with confidence knowing exactly what to expect, without surprise expenses or hidden costs.
Social Connection:
Build meaningful relationships with neighbors who become friends. Enjoy a true sense of belonging through shared meals, activities, and purposeful living that combats isolation.
Carefree Living:
Say goodbye to gutter cleaning, lawn mowing, and home repairs. Reclaim hours each week to pursue passions, not chores.
Elevated Dining Experiences:
Embrace mealtime as a delightful, restaurant-quality experience shared among friends. Life plan living transforms dining into an opportunity to create anticipation, foster social connections, and maintain the joy that good food brings to our lives.
