The kids have moved away. The family home echoes with silence. Annoying repairs crop up regularly. Utilities continue to skyrocket.
But what is the right fit for you?
Assisted Living with dining delights?
How does Assisted Living Work?
For those who require some assistance with everyday tasks, but not as much as a nursing home can offer, there is assisted living. The number of inhabitants in assisted living facilities might be as low as 25 or as high as 120. Normally, just a few “levels of care” are provided, with higher levels of care costing more for residents.
Seniors who are generally active but require some assistance with daily duties might live more comfortably in assisted living settings.
Nursing homes, on the other hand, provide long-term medical care for adults with serious health issues, and their fees are higher.
Benefits of Assisted Living Facilities
• Personalized care.
• Hands-on assistance with daily activities.
• Safety and security.
• Social activities and engagement.
• Access to healthcare facilities.
• Comfortable, home-like setting.
• Independence and fun.
• More free time.
