Let’s take some time to show you around Terre Haute, Indiana, and highlight what it’s like to retire here.

Making Independent Living In Terre Haute Less Expensive

An important factor to consider when looking at Terre Haute is Indiana’s overall affordability. Indiana’s cost of living is generally lower than the national average, which can be a major draw as you consider where to retire. Housing and healthcare costs, in particular, are less expensive than in many other states. Here at Westminster Village, we align with Terre Haute’s cost of living by providing less expensive senior living for our residents.

Lower Rates For Peace of Mind

A common concern is whether or not your town has senior living available, but even more so, can you afford the communities that are available? We wanted to address these concerns and ensure our community had a place to go when they wanted to retire, which is why we have chosen to lower our independent living rates. You asked, we delivered. When you consider Terre Haute, we want your needs to be met with less financial strain.

Update Regarding Mask Policies at Westminster Village

By News

The CDC announced on May 13, 2021, that fully vaccinated people can resume activities without wearing a mask or physically distancing, except where required by federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance. According to the CDC, people are considered fully vaccinated:

  • 2 weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or
  • 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine

We share your enthusiasm about the news and are hopeful COVID-19 rates continue to decline. Because our community follows guidance from health and regulatory agencies, our policies reflect the following:

  • Residents in independent living are no longer required to wear a mask in the independent living areas of the community if they are fully vaccinated unless required by local and state regulations, as mentioned above.
  • All residents, regardless of vaccination status, must wear masks on any form of community-based transportation.
  • Family and friends visiting residents in independent living need to wear a mask when entering and exiting and while in common spaces within a community. Masks can be removed when visitors are in a resident’s apartment. 
  • All residents in assisted living or memory care must continue to wear masks as required by the CDC for assisted living.
  • All independent living residents, family, and friends visiting residents in the assisted living, memory care, or skilled nursing areas in communities must continue to wear masks and adhere to the safety protocols in these settings.
  • Individuals taking part in a tour experience or attending an event at the community must wear a mask to meet with our team and experience the various areas of our community.

There are no changes to our mask policy for team members at this time, regardless of their vaccination status. The CDC states it is still learning how effective the vaccines are against variants of the virus that causes COVID-19.  For the protection of residents and fellow team members, all community personnel must wear masks, regardless of where they work within our community.

The health and safety of residents and team members remains our highest priority. We’ll continue to monitor the situation and adjust our protocols to help ensure the health and safety of our residents and team members. With further questions related to our COVID-19 protocols, please contact us directly.
