As a Life Plan Community, Marquette offers a full continuum of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation.
A Life Plan Community is a senior living community that offers multiple levels of care—including Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care and Skilled Nursing—all on one campus. Residents can transition between levels of care as their needs change. In addition to a full continuum of care, residents enjoy maintenance-free living, engaging amenities, and a wide variety of social opportunities.
Marquette’s Life Plan requires a one-time entrance fee and ongoing monthly service fees. Fees vary depending on your choice of residence, number of occupants, and type of entrance fee refund plan. As your health needs change, our Life Plan ensures you receive priority access to every level of advanced on-campus care at virtually the same monthly fee as what you pay for your independent living residence. We offer three refundable entrance fee options.
A Life Plan Community is ideal for those who want an active lifestyle today while planning ahead for any future healthcare needs. It offers convenience, peace of mind, and long-term stability.
If you’ve been wondering how to know when it’s time for independent living, take a close look at your own feelings. Had enough of preparing every meal? Are you tired of worrying about maintaining your home? Are you seeking more opportunities to have fun and socialize? Are you looking for convenient ways to stay fit and healthy? Would you like the convenience and freedom to just “lock and leave” when you want to travel? If you’ve answered yes to a number of these questions, you can feel pretty confident these are signs you’re ready for independent living at a senior living community. Reach out to our team here at Marquette, and we’ll be happy to help get you started.
The cost of living in Marquette varies depending on the size of your apartment home, level of care, and any additional services you may need.
