Q:Do I have to be a member of a United Methodist church to live at OMM?
|
|
Oklahoma Methodist Manor is open to all faiths. Being a United Methodist does not provide an advantage of any type.
|
|
Q:Why should I move to a residential community like OMM? Why shouldn't I just stay in my own house until I can't?
|
|
There are several reasons to consider making the move while you are still independent.
- Moving when you are 62 or better, as opposed to when you are forced to for health reasons, allows you to make the choice as to where you want to live. You do not have to go someplace simply because it is the only place that has room for you at the time your health needs change.
- It provides peace-of-mind for you and for your family to know that you are living in a community where you can receive healthcare services if ever needed.
- You can take advantage of all of the amenities and event programming provided while you still have the good health to enjoy them.
- You will become a part of a community who will “be there” for you no matter what life events come your way.
- You will have Member priority access to Health Care if ever needed.
- If you wait until you need Assisted Living, it is highly unlikely you will be able to move to OMM. Most of the time, OMM is able to accommodate only Members moving from the on-campus residences to the Assisted Living or Health Care Center.
