What to Consider About Assisted Living in Lincolnshire
It may be a small village of just over 7,300 people, but Lincolnshire is home to an abundance of recreational resources. With over 20 restaurants, a live theater venue, the Florsheim Nature Preserve, a PGA championship golf course and Spring Lake Beach, it has plenty to offer seniors searching for assisted living options. In fact, a sizable 31.9 percent of Lincolnshire residents are 65 and over.
To help support this significant senior population, there are three assisted living communities within Lincolnshire, and an additional 47 in neighboring towns. These communities provide an alternative for seniors who need some assistance with daily living but do not require skilled nursing care. In Lincolnshire, and all of Illinois, assisted living facilities are overseen by the Illinois Department of Public Health.

Activities for seniors are more likely to be limited to the indoors between December and February.
