Why You May Want to Consider Assisted Living Care

Why You May Want to Consider Assisted Living Care 1) Senior living is often much more affordable: With the 2009 season, many assisted living villages have had empty units. In an effort to find occupants and hopefully not lose any existing ones, they haven't increased rents (or minimally where they have). In addition they are offering incentives to bring in new tenants such as waving certain fees and even aid in moving in. You can find Assisted Living Care Locators which will find a better community for any budget, and be sure to ask about special benefits that may be available (such as veterans, etc)

2) Senior Safety: With the many problems that occur with the elderly, broken legs, hips, and other fall injuries are very frequent. Instability and even unexpected dizziness can come with age, and for many it leaves them prone to trip. In an assisted living care facility there will be a lot more help closeby. In addition you will likely have buttons in convenient locations that you can use to summon help with. Assisted Living Care Locators can help you find free assessments that can help you to assess what you will actually need.

3) Better company than ever: One common problem seniors find as they age is a feeling of isolation. It can bring on an ever growing lonely feeling and can become quite depressing in the long-term. You might even have heard of the higher rates of suicide among seniors in the US. Assisted Living can mean many others closer to your age (and life experiences) to associate with and make great friends among. Whether you'd rather stay at home in table games, or get out on the town, you are bound to find many new friends to enjoy these activities with (that may even be planned in advance for you and them). Assisted Living Locators will go further to find the perfect place for your life style.

4) Something more fun to do: Many assisted living communities offer upward of 8 activities daily for their residents. Often there will be a great variety such as rides, sporting events, and other common things seniors often enjoy. Some will be more down home to such as get together for a coffee, and maybe crafts included. Bird watching is popular too (and feeding them). Help is available by Assisted Living Locators in determining where you would find your favorite activities.

5) Better exercise than many have at their location: Often assisted living communities have group exercise to help keep their residents the healthiest possible. Yoga, Chair exercises, and various therapies are commonly found. Residents that keep strength, better balance, and remain fit are happier, as well as enjoy better independence.


6) Little boredom to lose your mind over: These assisted living communities can really keep your brain stimulated. In addition to your friends that are likely to have a lot in common with you, activities and such you are bound to keep your days eventful and productive. In addition the facilities may even add some activities that assist keeping your mind sharp as well. Locators offer free consultation on assessing future memory expectations and the best environment to slow the process.

7) You can look great: Everything from hair salons, nails service, and even massage therapy are available at some assisted living communities. Often pools, spas/whirlpools, and more can be found to aid you in looking the greatest possible!

8) You can have a better life in your senior years: With all of this you can find a much more peaceful, independent (as much as possible) and comfortable retirement. Planning this way while you can may enable you to be less of a load on those you love and be closer to them when they visit. Often after a fall people find their way into assisted living only after a bad fall or other event which caused them to have to rush into it. Wouldn't it be better to be prepared and avoid this all too often taken step? Call Assisted Living Care Locators today and they will assist you in all your future planning for the best you can find.

9) You're the boss: We can help you, though it's up to you what you go with. We want to assist you in finding the perfect environment to maintain your lifestyle, and do so as comfortably as possible.

10) And then there is Peace of Mind: With assisted living, you can cause much less of a burden on your family, and they too can have peace of mind that you are going to be okay. Often you can take it easy, and relax too. Wouldn't it be great to have others do your cooking, cleaning, shoveling, lawn mowing, and much more? So you can be free to enjoy all the above, or go visit friends elsewhere at will... When working with Assisted Living Locators and Eldercare Advisors you will see many options that are available, and some might even include chefs to cook for you.
