Benefits of Assisted Living
Many seniors opt for assisted living because they have become worn down from taking care of their own home and managing all its responsibilities themselves – from cooking, cleaning, shopping and raking – as well as any mobility limitations due to illness or injury.
On-site services will include meals, housekeeping, transportation and social programs – most of these covered under their base fee as well.
Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)
Activities of daily living (ADLs) are one of the primary measures used to assess whether a senior requires help at home or an assisted care facility. ADLs include bathing and grooming, dressing, toileting and transferring or ambulating.
