What should I look for in an assisted living community?

Take time to consider what services are important to you before you visit assisted living communities. Based on your needs, shortlist the communities that offer the services that are essential to you. If you need help with bathing, dressing, eating, taking medications, toileting, etc., choose an assisted living that offers nursing care services. As a rule of thumb, it is important to join a licensed, assisted living community with a skilled and experienced staff team. Check with the community to find out if they offer 24/7 medical care and support, and how they respond to medical emergencies.

Speak to the staff in the facility to learn about their attitude, friendliness, and the services they offer. You also want to try speaking to a couple of community members to get a taste of what it feels like to live there. We are a luxury senior living in Simi Valley with a memory care unit, a well-planned shopping plaza, a charming bistro, beautifully designed outdoor sitting areas, and a variety of other opulent features.

How do I talk to a loved one about assisted living?

If you and your family members feel that your loved one's living arrangement no longer supports their medical needs, you must move them to a safe and secure assisted living community. Involve your family members and siblings when you have a conversation with your loved one. Make sure to collectively present this idea in front of your loved one as a suggestion, instead of forcing it on them. Help your loved one comprehend as to how it is the best course of action for their wellbeing.

Keep the discussion open and honest, and express your concerns to your parent or loved one in a comforting manner. Be sure to involve your loved one in the decision-making process, and take them on tours to different assisted living communities to help them choose the environment they like. 

Top reasons to consider assisted living

Moving into an assisted living community may be the ideal option for you if you suffer from health-related issues that require supervision. This can include anything from having arthritis, failing eyesight, and dementia to Alzheimer's. You must consider assisted living, especially if your wellbeing is at risk.

Also, when at an assisted living community, you do not have to live alone nor feel lonely and depressed. On the brighter, look at the positives like having assistance with personal care, medication management, meal preparation, housekeeping, and other activities. You will also have plenty of opportunities for socializing and building new friendships and bonds with the community members.
