Continuing Care Retirement Community?

Continuing Care Retirement Community?

• A. Activism
• B. Survey Process
• C. CCRC
• D. Deficiency

Answer: (C)

This question tests recognizing an acronym for a type of elder-care community. The term given is “Continuing Care Retirement Community,” which is commonly abbreviated as CCRC. The best answer is the option that uses that exact abbreviation, because it directly stands for the full phrase in the stem. A CCRC is a campus that offers multiple levels of care—independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing—within one setting, allowing residents to move between levels as their needs change without leaving the community. It often involves an entrance fee plus ongoing costs. The other terms don’t represent this particular type of community: activism refers to social or political engagement, survey process to regulatory inspections, and deficiency to a problem found in an inspection.
