What is Assisted Living?
Assisted living is generally describes facilities for a senior needing assistance with day to day activities of daily living (ADL) like these:
- getting dressed
- bathing and grooming
- toileting
- eating and preparing regular nutritious meals
- keeping house
Over 80% of assisted living home seniors are over age 75. 19% of all residents are use Medicaid.
A warning that small personal care homes may not be regulated as assisted living is. We are sure there are plenty of good personal care homes, but there are report of abuse and neglect in some of the very small personal care homes. Just check them out completely.
Home Care Guide
Home care is a wide range of health care services given in your own home rather than in a assisted living facility or a nursing home. Home health care is usually less expensive and more convenient, and in some cases home health care can be just as effective as care the senior will get in a assisted living home or skilled nursing facility. Home care can help seniors stay in their own home to age in place longer and can increase the quality of life.
Best CCRC Care Communities
On each state page we have featured assisted living communities and the best CCRC (continuing care retirement communities) that includes assisted living on their campus. This can be advantageous when a transfer to a skilled nursing becomes necessary.
