What is Assisted Living? Assisted living is a housing arrangement for seniors who need some supervision and help with activities of daily living such as meal preparation, housekeeping and bathing, but who don't need skilled nursing care. At most assisted living communities, you can expect to see private or semiprivate rooms within a complex along with meals, shared dining, kitchenettes, common spaces for socializing, organized activities, transportation services, Alzheimer’s care, and more.

Pet-care and plant-care signs it might be time for assisted living Be sure to check out how the other living things are faring. An ability to take care of pets and plants goes along with self-care. Look for:... Plants that are dying, dead, or just gone. Most of us have seen plants go brown sometimes. Keep an eye out for chronic neglect, especially in a former plant-lover's home. Animals that don't seem well tended. Common problems: dogs with long nails, cat litter boxes that haven't been changed lately, or dead fish in the fish tank.

Assisted Living. This Type of Care Is Not Synonymous with Nursing Homes Our research suggests that many families believe they need nursing homes for their ailing older loved one when in fact assisted living is the most appropriate option. An assessment by an adviser or medical professional is the best way to determine the care type needed, but some general distinctions can be drawn between assisted living and nursing homes. For instance: Assisted living residents are mainly i...ndependent but may need help with daily living personal care tasks such as bathing and dressing, while nursing home residents tend to need 24-hour assistance with every activity of daily living Assisted living residents are mobile, while those who are bedridden require nursing homes Nursing home residents generally have a single or semi-private room, while assisted living residents typically live in a studio or one-bedroom apartment Nursing home residents require fully staffed, skilled nursing medical attention on a daily basis, while assisted living residents are more stable and do not need ongoing medical attention If you'd like more information, or are ready to start the enrollment process of your loved one into our facility, contact us today. 716-881-0565 or http://www.wnymanors.com
