Assisted living residences provide seniors with the opportunity to enjoy a high quality of life, while receiving personal care from trained employees and prompt access to medical and emergency care in a residential setting.

Assisted living residents are unable to live independently.
They require assistance with activities of daily living (e.g., eating,walking, bathing, dressing and toileting), but don’t require continuous, 24-hour medical care.

Assisted living communities provide services and amenities similar to those offered by independent living communities, plus assistance with activities of daily living, three meals a day, medication reminders, linen service, housekeeping, activities and transportation.

Some assisted living facilities specialize in caring for persons with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia. Units in these settings are typically private apartments furnished with a resident’s own belongings.
