There are Many Options for Senior Living
Nursing home Living
For individuals with significant health problems, a nursing home may be the best option. Nursing home support services include bathing, dressing, medication management, meal assistance, housekeeping, activities, and more. Many nursing homes also have special programs for individuals who have dementia.
Home Plus
These homes are licensed private home residences or facilities for twelve people or less. All the people share the common spaces of the home. Meals are provided, supervised nursing care provided by certified nurse aides is available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Staffing, assistance and services are the same as in an assisted living facility.
Assisted Living
Designed to offer supportive services that maintain maximum privacy, freedom, and independence fall in this category. Assisted living facilities can provide, as needed, personal assistance ranging from help with bathing, to medication management, housekeeping, and overall monitoring.
Independent Living
For those who seek a change in residence, an array of senior focused apartments, duplexes, and condominiums are available, both on a private pay and a subsidized basis. Amenities and services provided can vary, and some options may involve applications and wait lists.
