The many choices for senior housing can be overwhelming. Some older adults are able to live out their retirement years playing golf and enjoying relatively few health problems. In contrast, others require assistance with their care needs which is often dictated by health and safety concerns.
Assisted living is a type of housing designed for people who need various levels of medical and personal care. Living spaces can be individual rooms, apartments, or shared quarters. Assisted living communities generally provide a home-like setting and are physically designed to promote the resident’s independence. Services are offered to assist residents with daily living. What “assisted living” means depends on both the state and provider in question. Variations in state regulatory definitions are significant and provider variables include everything from care provided to geographic location, organizational size, and structure.
Assisted living communities typically provide supervision or assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), coordination of services by outside health care providers, and monitoring of resident activities to help to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Assistance often includes the administration or supervision of medication, or personal care services. The services offered by assisted living communities vary from facility to facility. Services often include:

“Always Best Care gave excellent in-home care to my mom. They matched care aides with my mom who provided showers, food prep, walk assistance, dressing, commode changing, cleaning and assistance getting to and from appointments. They initially provided several aides to find a good match, and then once we’d found someone who really gelled with my mom (Teddy) then they would typically schedule her from then on, which gave my mom a predictable schedule and the ability to form a long-term relationship with her caregiver. ABC always provided clear, consistent and prompt communication with me around scheduling and any questions that arose. In the initial consultation, Daniel was very professional and attentive to my mom’s needs and wants, including her in the conversation and sharing a clear picture of the company’s services, caregivers, costs and next steps. ABC provided excellent service at a more affordable rate than other companies offering the same high quality care. I would recommend them to anyone in need of in-home care. When we needed to transition my mom to an assisted living facility, ABC’s owner Sarah Cave went above and beyond to help us find an appropriate spot at a feasible cost. She gathered a list of places, with notes on cost and fit, scheduled tours, joined us at each tour, guided us on the correct questions to ask, and helped us to coordinate logistics as we signed paperwork, including offering to review the care plan prepared by the facility. Sarah was a lifesaver, and she dramatically improved the ease with which we were able to find a good place for my mom, and reduced the stress of the search and move. I can’t recommend Sarah or ABC more highly.”
“Always Best Care in Seattle has been outstanding. Their caregivers are attentive, kind, and truly care about each individual’s needs. They kept us informed every step, giving our family real peace of mind. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate, dependable senior home care in the Seattle area. Truly exceptional service!”
“Excellent, caring people (four total) came 8 hours each to my home.”
“Provided quality care for a relative settling back home after a hospital stay. Well managed small business with very good caregivers.”
“I am a past client of this provider Excellent caregiving staff. Really communicated well & provided safe knowledgeable care for our loved ones. We really cannot thank them enough…”
“I am a past client of this provider All Best Care provided top-notch home care after my husband’s surgery. Each of the people we have serving us for the short term need were well trained on transfers, safety showering, etc. They were able to help him recover by keeping up his mobility and helping him with his exercises once he started PT therapy. They also provided a wide variety of housekeeping services, such as taking out the garbage, laundry, preparing meals for him, doing dishes, making beds, etc. I can’t imagine making it through that time while continuing my demanding job without them. Sarah, the owner, is a great source of information and support. We are grateful to her and to the fine people who work for her for the care and support we received.”
“I am a past client of this provider Services provided involved caring for a cancer patient in the final days of her life. She was confined to bed and caregivers had to feed her, attend to bodily needs, check for and treat physical conditions such as skin damage, and interact with both the patient and family. At times, their knowledge was applied in letting family know that the patient had needs we did not recognize. All of this was in a hospice setting in our home. I was in a panic on a Friday, because my wife needed care that I did not know how to provide. The soonest anyone was coming was Monday, until Daniel called from Always Best Care. He called Friday morning and by 5 PM Kawsar was here to help. She helped not just my wife, but observing her knowledge and care were comforting to me and my family. Over the next five days, my family and I also met Hiwot, Irene, Edwin, Andrew and Geoffrey. Some of these people came more than once. I thank each of them for the comfort and care they provided. I will always remember each of them for their knowledge and professionalism, and for caring. The schedulers were very responsive and we were never without help when we needed it. Many times schedulers provided coverage with very short notice by me. Every staff member I had contact with reacted with a positive, “we can do this” attitude, no matter how difficult my request might be. The owner was hands on, checking in with me several times to assure that the needs of patient and family were being addressed. She started long range planning in case my wife needed it.”
“I am a past client of this provider I worked with Joseph and Maimuna after knee surgery and more than a month in rehab. At first I didn’t think I would need help, but I have never been so glad to have it. Both of my helpers were kind and courteous and, as I got to know them, I looked forward to their visits even more. They took care of everything from the smallest detail, to laundry, changing beds, fixing my lunch and supervising showers. I am grateful that I was able to have their care.”
“I am a past client of this provider Consistently received quick professional responses from the owner and other admin staff, always received the care coverage we needed even when needs changed rapidly, and best of all, we were deeply impressed by her care team – each home health aide was thoughtful , thorough, professional, very attentive, and very kind. Our grandmother was well-pampered in the unexpected last month of her life thanks to Sarah and the Always Best team.”
“Sarah came and met with our grandmother in advance of her return home from the hospital after a nasty bout of pneumonia and I was immediately impressed and grateful. She treated our grandmother with respect and care and thoughtfulness. We believed we would only be working with Always Best for a short period of time while our grandmother got back up to speed. we were all incredibly impressed by the attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine care with which Sam Ishmael, Fridah, Tegan and Ima worked with our grandmother. When she declined unexpectedly and rapidly, Sarah, Jacqueline and Kaitlin all put in extra energy to ensure she had the coverage she needed. In the last month and a half of her life, our grandmother had a level of care she’d never received and felt not only cared for but even a little pampered, in the best of ways. I am so grateful Sarah picked up the phone when I called that Sunday in March to find care for our grandmother!”
“ABC works well with other provider services such as the VA and home RN healthcare delivery services. They work to establish a rapport for ease of communication. Workers are consistent and reliable and they have been able to delegate meds and tube feedings well. Very little turnover noted in the last year! We will continue to work with them! Thanks for the ease of communication through your website, ABC!”
“Responsive office, qualified care givers.”
“We have a wonderful experience, with ABCSS. The Team and services are the best. We are very pleased and blessed. Thank you all.”
“The team at Always Best Care is just phenomenal. We’ve had nothing but amazing service. Everyone in the team is professional, punctual and truly compassionate. If you want top quality care – look no further!”
“Cannot say enough good things about Sarah and Always Best Care! After my step dad had a stroke, Sarah went above and beyond trying to find him the best place for recovery. You can tell she really cares and truly has her heart in it for the right reasons. So thankful to have found Sarah & her team – would recommend them to anyone!”
“ABC Senior Services excels in all aspects. This is a group you can rely on to help in every way. Professional care and scheduling, with compassion and heart.”
“Our family had an extremely positive experience with Always Best Care. During a very tough & emotional time, their skilled caregivers allowed us to lovingly care for our family member at home with reduced stress. We could not have done it without them!!”

“After looking far and wide in Seattle, finally I found Always Best Care – what an immense relief! Sarah Cave has shown us that her range includes not only the actual caregiving itself (absolutely top-notch!) but also her knowledge and advice about senior living situations, long-term care insurance, and other related issues. Initially, I had no idea that this range of resources could be available from one source, certainly not in such a kind and caring context. Sarah and her team at ABC are the “real thing,” and my husband (who has Parkinson disease) and I are forever grateful.”
“Sarah at Alway Best Care Senior Services is excellent. She is compassionate and understands what you are trying to accomplish to help your loved one. She explains everything and puts your mind at ease. The whole team is very helpful and the caregivers are top notch! My Dad is a lot happier now that he has a care giver through this team. I feel at peace knowing my Dad is being well taken care of. Julie Taylor”
“This company did a fantastic job caring for my father. I highly recommend them for home care.”
“I cannot praise Sarah and her team enough. My husband had a stroke and was in the hospital over a month before transferring to a physical therapy unit. It has been a scary time for my family and me. Sarah has helped us navigate the complex medical world and given me clear pathways to choose from on what the future might look like for my husband and me. Our hope is that he return home, but if he cannot, Sarah has given me concrete options that would serve our needs and give us peace of mind for the continued care and rehabilitation for my husband. We have toured facilities together and I have appreciated her kindness, intelligence and her attention to the details that I would not have even thought of. She definitely is an expert in her field and her help in our crisis has been immensely appreciated.”

“My experience with Always Best Care was phenomenal! I have never experienced an owner, and her amazing employees, go so far above and beyond to help my family. Sarah Cave (owner of ABC) has a heart of pure gold! She (literally and figuratively) held my sister’s and my hand as we moved through one of the most stressful times of our lives. We were dealing with a dad in serious condition in the hospital and a mom who needed 24/7 care for her Alzheimer’s. Sarah and her angelic crew rallied around us, and helped us support two parents through what felt like an impossible situation They helped care for our mom, they set up care upon my dads return home (dealing with a very unstable version of him with unending grace) and provided countless options on how to help them move forward (assisted living options, in-home care, etc). Sarah gave us all the resources we needed along the way. The degree in which she and her team showed up was truly astounding, and we will be forever grateful. They saved us during a time that felt dire. I am forever indebted to this phenomenal team. It doesn’t get better than Always Best Care!!!”
There are many choices for seniors to consider when it comes to finding a community that will best fit their needs.
Independent living communities are for adults, generally ages 55 and older, who don’t need assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), but are looking for a living environment that offers additional support, onsite amenities and socializing opportunities and activities.
A continuing care retirement community (CCRCs) offers multiple options along the continuum of senior living housing and healthcare spectrum. Many CCRCs offer independent living, assisted living, and memory care all on one campus. If care needs change, residents can transition within the community to the proper care setting. In most cases, in-home care is also provided.
Assisted living is a type of housing designed for people who need various levels of medical and personal care. Living spaces can be individual rooms, apartments, or shared quarters.
Residential care communities for the elderly, sometimes referred to as board and care homes, are responsible for providing assisted living services to residents in a homelike and community setting, allowing them to maintain independence while continuing to receive nursing level of care as needed.
Memory care is a type of long-term care geared toward those living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of progressive-degenerative dementia.
Nursing homes are senior living facilities that offer a high level of medical care. Like assisted living facilities, nursing homes have numerous amenities and help with basic activities. However, they also provide medication management and 24-hour supervision, leading to a more clinical environment as well as the highest level of care for individuals who don’t require hospitalization.
Always Best Care representatives can help match each client’s physical, emotional, and financial needs with the amenities and services of the local communities in your area. This is based on the use of comparative data that can help you determine the best option for you or your loved one.
Always Best Care works closely with the senior living communities in your area to gain extensive knowledge that is used to help seniors and their loved ones make an informed decision about the best option for them. This includes basic rent and care charges, services provided, and availability. Because Always Best Care is compensated by the communities, we provide senior living referral services that are provided at no charge to the client.
The transition into a senior living community can be a daunting task. Your spouse can play a huge role in your well-being. In many cases, especially assisted and independent living, spouses are certainly welcome to join their loved one. If this is something you are considering, it will be important to ask the community you are considering if your spouse is welcome to join you. Also, be sure to ask how costs are allocated for your spouse.
Moving into a senior community is based on when and how you and your family want to transition. While some seniors are more proactive in moving into independent living, others choose to remain home until they have care needs or other requirements that make moving into a senior living community the right decision.
