Independent living suits active older adults who do not need daily personal care — it focuses on lifestyle, amenities, and community. Assisted living, by contrast, provides scheduled hands-on help with bathing, dressing, and medication for residents who need ongoing support with daily activities.

In Ontario, retirement homes are licensed and inspected by the Retirement Homes Regulatory Authority (RHRA), an independent body established under the Retirement Homes Act, 2010. Agewise links to public regulatory records wherever they are available.
