Assisted Living is a new paradigm in
wellness and engagement, and is built on a European social model. It is designed for seniors who do not require
24-hour nursing care but rather just need a little assistance with daily living. An assisted
living community provides a secure and comfortable
environment that lets you or your loved one age in place. Furthermore, it gives family members peace of
mind knowing that their elderly parent or relative is receiving the care they
need.
Many communities offer a range of amenities
that include private suites, libraries, theater, fitness centers as
well as creative and wellness programs. Some
of the services typically provided by assisted living communities are daily
meals, medication management, help with bathing and dressing and
transportation. With a home-like
atmosphere, seniors have the opportunity for companionship and to develop new
friendships and interests.
Assisted
living can also provide a safer option for many seniors than
living alone as help is much closer at hand. According to the National Institute of Health,
“More than one in three people age 65 years or older falls each year. The risk
of falling -- and fall-related problems -- rises with age.” In
fact, over 1.6 million U.S. seniors go to emergency rooms
for fall-related injuries every year.
