With over 600 licensed assisted living communities in the Suncoast area, Senior Living Selections helps bridge the gap between you and the assisted living conditions suitable for you or your loved ones.
Assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with activities of daily living (ADL), coordination of services by outside health care providers, and monitoring of residents’ activities to help ensure their health, safety, and wellbeing. Assistance may include administering or supervising medication or providing certain personal care services by trained staff.
Senior Living Selections’ advisors can help you find the most suitable assisted living communities that will give you the highest level of attention and healthcare. Accommodations and options may vary significantly from one assisted living community to the next (e.g., private rooms, private baths, kitchenettes, etc.), so it is imperative to work with an advisor who can help you locate the facility that fits your personal needs and preferences.
Assisted living is a type of senior care designed for the elderly who require personal care assistance in their daily living activities, including eating, taking medications, grooming, going to the bathroom, and housekeeping. Assisted living facilities (ALFs) usually have a home-like setting and staff members who are present 24/7 to ensure the health and overall wellbeing of the residents.
Assisted living is commonly mistaken as nursing home care, where residents require round-the-clock care from trained medical personnel. However, the level of care in nursing homes is far different from assisted living facilities. While ALFs have highly trained staff to care for their residents, they don’t have the same skills and knowledge as specially trained medical professionals.
Putting ourselves or our senior loved one in an assisted living facility is a difficult choice most of us have to make. So, to help you decide, we have listed some of the most common indications it’s best to reside in an ALF.
• Difficulty doing activities of daily living
• Frequent accidents at home (slipping and falling)
• Poor housekeeping
• Broken items within the house (plates, glasses, furniture)
• Signs of unsafe driving (car dents, incoordination, poor maintenance)
• Unpaid monthly bills due to unopened mails
• Significant weight loss
• Changes in attitude due to loneliness or lack of companionship
If you notice these signs, it would be best to consider transitioning to assisted living. Our experts at Senior Living Selections can help you with the entire process, from assessing your situation to picking the best facility for your specific needs and preferences.
