When seniors reach the point where they need a little extra help with daily tasks, they sometimes wonder if they are ready for an assisted living community. Perhaps, the concern is costs, or the hassle of moving, or perhaps they associate assisted living with nursing homes. We know it can be a difficult, deeply personal decision, but we will say that an assisted living community is far from a nursing home. Our seniors maintain active social lives, and they set their own daily schedules. They live in private apartments but enjoy having a maintenance-free community and the little bit of extra help that comes with assisted living. We are here to support you while you live the way you want to live.
Most families start thinking about full health care services when their loved one needs assistance with mobility, with getting up in the morning or getting to bed at night, or with their care in the bathroom. Our team will work with the primary care doctor and with family to make sure that the need for a move is not a surprise to anyone and that all are prepared for the next step. That’s the benefit of living in a Life Plan Community—the need for more help doesn’t require a move beyond our campus. Friends and even caregivers are familiar!
