What care costs later, in each contract

Sanders

Rental: Sanders now offers only one-year leases (then month to month) with no entrance fee. Tenants get priority access to assisted living and the on-campus nursing center but pay the regular rates.p. 47

Williamsburg Landing

Type B (modified): Independent living, direct-admission assisted living and direct-admission memory support agreements each include up to 10 days of nursing-center care per calendar year (non-cumulative; they end after the year of a permanent nursing transfer). Beyond that, nursing, assisted living and memory support are paid at Williamsburg Landing's own rates; residents are offered nursing beds before non-residents.p. 40
