Assisted Living Communities
are for people needing assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), but who wish to live as independently as possible. Residents in Assisted Living Communities range from the very healthy to the very impaired. Part of the reason the health status of residents varies so much is that the help they receive in Assisted Living keeps them more independent for longer than they would have been if they had continued to live alone. Residents who are still able to drive often keep their own cars.
Assisted Living Communities usually offer prepared meals, group activities and exercise classes. Some have computer rooms and libraries. Most have a medical center which manages medications and other minor health concerns. Assistance with eating, bathing, dressing, laundry, housekeeping, etc. is available. Assisted Living Communities provide 24-hour staffing and emergency response.
Most Assisted Livings prefer that incoming residents do not have serious mobility issues that require transfers, such as in and out of bed, a chair, or a wheelchair. Assisted Living Communities are not for people who have severe behavioral problems, like wandering.
Costs vary widely, depending on room size and services provided, and are generally paid from private funds. Do your research.
