Senior Care: Almost Limitless Activities at Assisted Living
Reading Time: 3 minutes
A common question people have when talking about different living situations is what they might be able to do there. One of the best options for elderly men and women, especially those who may be slowing down with age, dealing with chronic health issues, limited strength, and so forth is senior care services at assisted living. There are many reasons why assisted living is a great option, but for those who want to know exactly what they might be able to do, the choices really are almost limitless. Almost.
Caregiver: Keeping Seniors Safe at Assisted Living
Reading Time: 2 minutes
One of the most important things to a family caregiver of aging seniors is keeping them safe. Yet, safety generally declines as people get older. This is especially true when men and women move through their 70’s, approaching 80, and even move well through their 80’s and 90’s. The older a person is, the more likely they are facing some potentially serious safety hazards.
Assisted Living Becomes a Top Option with New Technology and Respite Care Advances
Reading Time: 3 minutes
One thing that many people immediately think about when they hear the term ‘assisted living’ is a permanent, end-of-life care option for aging men and women. In reality, assisted living is first and foremost about living life to the fullest, with help (assistance).
It’s easy to miss some important information about assisted living, though. One notable example is the fact that most people are not aware of the respite care options some quality assisted living facilities offer elderly men and women.
Memory Care Units Decrease Hospital or Nursing Home Admissions
Reading Time: 2 minutes
If your loved one is a resident within an assisted living community, it could be beneficial to know more about their memory care community. A study published in the Alzheimer’s & Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer’s Association, titled Memory Care Reduces Nursing Home Admissions Among Assisted-Living Residents with Dementia reports findings that residents in memory care were less likely to have any hospital or nursing home admission within the first 180 days in assisted living. The study found that differences in care processes in memory care that help residents avoid transfer may be a significant factor in their findings.
Elderly Care at Assisted Living Can Help One Be Safer in the Bathroom
Reading Time: 3 minutes
Every year, as we turn the calendar over and look at January, we may not realize it, but this is Bath Safety Month. In truth, most people don’t even think twice about their safety in the bathroom, not until they slip a little in the tub and their heart begins racing, realizing how close they came to a potentially serious fall (with injuries to boot). While neither they nor you may have even thought about elderly care at an assisted living facility as a way to help them stay safer, January is the perfect time to begin discussing bath safety and their future.

Starting the New Year Off on the Right Assisted Living Foot
Reading Time: 3 minutes
It’s the end of the year. That means people are making New Year’s Resolutions, planning on starting the year off on the right foot, taking positive changes in their life, and thinking about the future. For some older seniors, thinking about the future means determining the right type of elder care. There are numerous senior care options out there, but few that can match the benefits that a quality assisted living facility can offer. However, too many people have misconceptions about what assisted living is, what it can offer, and the vast benefits it may provide.
The Importance of Memory Care Services for Alzheimer’s
Reading Time: 3 minutes
The moment somebody you love has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, many things can change. Usually, it’s your mindset, outlook, and even hope for the future. It doesn’t matter whether this is your mother, father, grandparent, spouse, sibling, close friend, or a neighbor you’ve known for decades, when that diagnosis of Alzheimer’s comes in, it can rattle you to the core. You may consider a number of elder care options, but memory care at an assisted living facility is truly the best one for many reasons.
