Assisted
living communities offer a combination of housing, personalized
support services, and health care services in a non-institutional
setting. It is a housing concept that recognizes that many elderly
need assistance but don’t need a nursing home. Assisted living
emphasizes the social and personal requirements of residents
who need some assistance, but desire and deserve to age with
dignity. Modern assisted living communities are designed to
respond to the individual needs of seniors who require assistance,
but do not need the level of nursing care provided in a skilled
nursing community. These communities provide individual apartments
or rooms, meals, housekeeping, laundry, activities, medication
management, health status monitoring, and assistance with the
activities of daily living.
Along with the comforts of home, modern assisted living communities
are designed with many features to meet the needs of residents.
Security measures include fire alarms and a sprinkler system
along with trained staff on premise 24-hours a day. A variety
of social, educational, and physical activities for every lifestyle
are offered. There are many opportunities to make new and lasting
friends.
