In a recent post, we mentioned Beacon Hill Village, a support group for wealthy residents of Beacon Hill in Boston. They have a website, so you can find out more about their services by visiting them online. Money can’t buy life, but it can keep you in your home.
Here’s the pitch:
Beacon Hill Village helps persons age 50 and older who live on Beacon Hill and in its adjacent neighborhoods enjoy safer, healthier and more independent lives in their own homes–well connected to a familiar and attentive community. Faced with the prospect of leaving the neighborhood they love in order to obtain the services of a retirement community, a group of long-time Beacon Hill residents decided to create a better alternative–Beacon Hill Village, a “virtual retirement community” designed to make remaining at home a safe, comfortable and cost-effective solution.
By partnering with proven providers of services, Beacon Hill Village is able to offer its members preferred access to social and cultural activities, exercise opportunities and household and home maintenance services, as well as medical care and assisted living at home. As a nonprofit, membership organization, it can provide these programs and services more cost-effectively than most conventional retirement communities.
