Also known as Continuing Care Retirement Communities, or CCRCs, Life Plan Communities provide additional peace of mind for active seniors who appreciate the assurance of quality healthcare if and when needed.

In addition to these health services, Givens Highland Farms has a Home Care program, supporting residents with additional services when they desire to remain in their homes for as long as possible.
