KNOW Your Contract Types

There are three basic types of contracts for Life Plan Communities:

The fees in this plan offer unlimited assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing care without additional charges for the care.

This contract offers a set of services provided for a set length of time. When that time is expired, other services can be obtained, but for higher monthly fees.

The initial enrollment fee may be lower, but assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing will be paid for at market rates.

Carlyle Place offers a Type A, the all-inclusive Life Care contract.

We feel strongly that this type of contract provides residents with the best coverage to take care of their needs. Our representatives will be happy to discuss your contract with you.

If you have questions about our contract type, please feel free to contact us at any time.

• Is it social?

  “Living here in Macon has been great and there are many cultural experiences to enjoy. It is convenient to just take the bus into town for a group outing and not have to worry with parking or driving back at night. The best time to move into Carlyle Place is now, while you are still active and vital and can take advantage of all of the events and activities.” -Col. Paul Evans (retired), Carlyle Place resident

• Is it affordable?

  Most people find out that when they add up all of their current expenses including utilities, lawn service, home maintenance, and property taxes, the cost is actually more than the monthly fee they’d pay at Carlyle Place. Click here to calculate your own estimate.
