Expanding EasyLiving’s Community Care Partnerships
At EasyLiving, our mission has always been to help seniors age wisely by bringing care directly to where they live. Over the years, we’ve seen that one of the best ways to achieve this is by meeting residents right where they already call home, in their communities. That’s the inspiration behind our Community Care Program, a model that brings EasyLiving’s trusted care management, personal care, and skilled nursing services into independent and assisted living communities across the Tampa Bay Region.
A Modern Approach to Independent Living
EasyLiving Community Care is a new model of in-home support designed specifically for independent and senior living communities. Instead of traditional hourly home care, residents receive on-demand, task-based assistance from a dedicated on-site care team available 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., seven days a week.
Residents enjoy flexibility, affordability, and peace of mind—without hourly minimums or long-term contracts. This model gives them access to help when they need it, and freedom when they don’t.
How It Works
On-Site Support: EasyLiving Care Partners are stationed within the community to provide immediate help and peace of mind.
Comprehensive Support Services: Residents can receive assistance with personal care, meals, laundry, housekeeping, medication reminders, and wellness checks.
Flexible Packages: Support levels are customized to meet each resident’s needs—from essential daily assistance to full personal care coordination—allowing residents to scale services as their needs change.
Why Pay for Home Care Services by the Hour?
There Is a Better Way
We’re disrupting the old model of in-home personal care. Traditional hourly billing often leads to paying for more time than you truly need—or going without help because minimums are too high. EasyLiving created a unique, cost-effective model that lets residents pay only for the help they need while sharing the benefits of group-based daily support.
There are no minimum hours or days required. Our Care Partners are on site from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., seven days a week, ready to assist with meals, personal care, medication reminders, or safety checks whenever needed.
Example:
If your current home care arrangement charges for a four-hour minimum each day, you could easily be overpaying for time you don’t use. With EasyLiving’s Community Care model, residents receive flexible, task-based support throughout the day—resulting in significant monthly savings compared to traditional home care. Many residents save over $1,000 per month while gaining far greater access to care.
Veterans and Long-Term Care Insurance Accepted
We’re proud to be contracted with the Veterans Administration and all major Long-Term Care Insurance providers, including Genworth, Bankers Life, and John Hancock. These programs often cover EasyLiving’s Community Care services. Our team can help you navigate enrollment and ensure your benefits are applied correctly.
“As the Executive Director, I’ve enjoyed partnering with EasyLiving. When a family member calls me, I can confidently say, ‘We have support on site that can help your mom with everything from fixing the TV to escorting her to meals.’”
EasyLiving provides trained, insured, and background-checked professionals who are vetted, visible, and accountable every day giving communities and families complete peace of mind.
