Find A Community Near Me

No matter how carefully your loved ones are prepared for retirement age, they’ll need some assistance at some point. Adjusting to a new lifestyle at a new home can take some time. So let assisted living lead the way with excellent services and amenities.

Understanding Assisted Living

Seniors who need long-term housing and assistance with personal care will feel at home in assisted living. Although most residents in assisted living communities are active, they occasionally require assistance with routine tasks like dressing, bathing, and using the bathroom. In a secure environment, seniors in assisted living may expect customized care, nutritious meals, a wide selection of social activities to suit various interests, and a sense of community.

Assisted living provides services and amenities emphasizing vital facets of senior well-being, such as physical health, intellectual stimulation, and social connection. These three pillars support maintaining seniors’ health and happiness and slowing cognitive decline. Residents at assisted living communities also get the assistance they need while still getting to interact with their neighbors and care staff regularly.

When Is It Time For Assisted Living?

No matter how carefully your loved ones are prepared for retirement age, they’ll need some assistance at some point. Adjusting to a new lifestyle at a new home can take some time. So let assisted living lead the way with excellent services and amenities.

When the yesses start to mount up, you know it’s time to consider assisted living.

Research has shown that even the best-intentioned at-home senior care can actually damage familial relationships and create conflict and isolation. So while many family caregivers worry about this difficult choice, supporting your elderly loved one in a move to an assisted living community may actually improve your relationships, as well as their health and quality of life.

Why Choose Assisted Living?

Assisted living provides older adults who require some assistance with daily activities with a pleasant, active, and maintenance-free way of life. Residents in assisted living communities receive the support they need while maintaining their independence in a lively community that provides plenty of opportunities to keep involved. The benefits of assisted living include:

Assisted Living Costs

The cost of assisted living varies from community to community. Location, neighborhood amenities, apartment size, and the level of assistance required by your loved one are considered in determining the cost of elder care.

Costs are based upon several pricing models as well. For instance, although some assisted living communities might be all-inclusive while others might bill for services on an as-needed basis for seniors.

In the United States, on average, assisted living costs around $4,000 per month. However, depending on where you live, charges might be as high as $7,000 per month or higher. Even while assisted living costs may appear expensive, they include housing, utilities, meals and snacks, housekeeping, transportation to doctor’s appointments, and social activities.

REVIEW THE COSTS

How Do I Pay For Assisted Living?

Although many families rely on savings, there are other ways for your family to pay for assisted living care, such as:

Veterans Benefits
Life Insurance
Long-term Care Insurance
Home Equity
Medicaid And Medicare
Bridge Loan
