What this means

BC tenancy guidance says independent housing for seniors may include retirement communities and is not itself a regulated care category. Confirm the current tenancy agreement, service package, and any optional support boundaries before shortlisting.

Care-escalation rules

Where housing support stops

Retirement-community shortlisting should distinguish tenancy and hospitality services from regulated care. Confirm whether the resident signs a tenancy agreement, service agreement, or both.

If needs change

If needs increase, confirm whether optional supports or outside care providers can be added, and what changes would require transition planning or a move.
