What is Assisted Living?Assisted living facilities are for people needing assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) but wishing to live as independently as possible. Assisted living exists to bridge the gap between independent living and nursing homes. Residents in assisted living facilities are not able to live by themselves but do not require constant care. Assisted living facilities help with ADLs such as eating, bathing, dressing, housekeeping, and assistance with medications. Many facilities also have centers for medical care; however, the care offered may be not as intensive or available to residents as the care of a nursing home. Assisted living is not an alternative to a nursing home, but an intermediate level of long-term care appropriate for many seniors.

How Does an Assisted Living Facility Differ from a Nursing Home?Nursing homes are designed to care for very frail people that are not able to care for themselves and have numerous health care requirements. Assisted living facilities are designed to assist elderly persons who are able to care for themselves except for a few activities. Assisted living facilities are often deemed necessary when the person in question needs help preparing meals, bathing, dressing, performing household chores, is sometimes confused, or is experiencing memory problems. Residential care facility provides care and companionship for elderly residents. We offer real home living (not nursing home) for your aging parents. |
