When to Choose Independent or Assisted Living

Independent and assisted living facilities can offer individuals the opportunity to maintain high levels of independence while receiving the care they need to improve their quality of life. Here are a few signs that may help determine if you or someone you love is ready to transition to assisted living:

• Daily tasks are becoming increasingly “difficult”
• Loneliness or need for socialization
• Having difficulty managing medications
• One spouse can no longer care for the other as his/her health declines
• Decline or inability to care for oneself (showering, toileting, grooming, etc.)
• Inability to maintain home (housekeeping, yard work, etc.)
• Decreased mobility and/or trouble getting around
• Lack of motivation or interest
• Significant changes in weight loss or appetite

We encourage families to have ongoing discussions with loved ones and evaluate when additional assistance may be appropriate. It is important to address these issues sooner rather than later.

We understand this is a very difficult decision. We would love to explore all the options independent and assisted living can provide you.
