What is Assisted Living?<\/h2>\n

Assisted Living is support for seniors with activities they can no longer do on their own. Focused on their particular needs, staff provides help with activities of daily living while maintaining the independence of residents.<\/p>\n

Families have several options when choosing support for their loved ones. They break down based on needs, budget, and long-term plan.<\/p>\n

Types of Assisted Living<\/h2>\n

Family Care<\/h3>\n

With this approach, a family member or members become caregivers to their senior loved one. They handle the day-to-day support and help seniors meet their needs.<\/p>\n

This is arguably the most cost-effective way to ensure a senior loved one has the care and support they need. But it can also be the most taxing on both families and their loved ones.<\/p>\n

While incredibly rewarding, caring for a senior family member is very involved. Caregiver burnout<\/a> is a concern. Where the caregiver may not care for themselves, thus, they cannot properly care for their loved one.<\/p>\n

Assisted Living Community<\/h3>\n

An assisted living community is a place built to provide personalized care and support to residents.<\/p>\n

When looking at cost, this is the middle of the road. Depending on the community, there are costs to cover their apartment, services, and other aspects of care.<\/p>\n

This requires a transitional period for residents to adjust. While that may be initially difficult, residents quickly learn that the support they receive is invaluable.<\/p>\n

Professional Support at Home<\/h3>\n

Families can also work with professional caregivers who provide support at home.<\/p>\n

This is the most expensive option. Families must cover all expenses related to the caregiver\u2019s services. From lodging to transportation, families are responsible for every cost.<\/p>\n

Services are delivered at home with no need to change routines or location.<\/p>\n
