Assisted Living: What You Need to Know
As the activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, preparing meals or managing medications become more of a challenge, assisted living may be just what seniors need to continue enjoying a full life – on their own terms.
Assisted living is also known as residential care or personal care depending on the state you live in and the community’s licensure. Although there are some distinctions between the different licenses, the level of care associated with each is designed to offer necessary support so residents can enjoy optimal independence.
Seniors in assisted living continue to live as independently as possible while they receive the support they need.
Maintaining independence is important for people as they age. In fact, losing the ability to operate on their own is one of the biggest fears people have. An overwhelming majority want to remain in their own homes, and understandably so, but life can be made so much better when you have help with the activities you do every day.
