Understanding the Senior Living Community Options

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.

The information below will provide you with some of the more common options available in today’s senior housing market. For more information, contact your local Always Best Care office today to help you make an educated decision about the right senior living option for you or your loved one.

Assisted Living

What Is Assisted Living?

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.

Services Provided by Assisted Living Communities

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:

  • One to three meals a day
  • Monitoring of medication
  • Personal care, including dressing and bathing
  • Housekeeping and laundry
  • 24-hour emergency care
  • Some medical services
  • Social and recreational activities
  • Medical emergency response
  • Visitation policy

“Cannot say enough about the people at Always Best Care in Temecula. We had an urgent need for care for my Mom…..and Rebecca was incredibly helpful in quickly lining up caregivers to help us. The communication and organization was outstanding. And the caregivers Jessica and Christina went above and beyond. Working with Charmain on the business and invoicing side was also very easy. Overall great experience and highly recommend ABC.”

“I would like to provide my experience with ABC. My husband came home from the hospital and into hospice care. It was such a very emotional time. I hired ABC for 24-hour care to assist. What I received was the most caring individuals who gave both me and my husband the best care a person could ask for. Not only were they very highly qualified, they cared for my husband with the utmost compassion, as they also did for me. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give them a 15. I had 3 different ladies on 8 hour shifts, and I can say that I love them all and could not have asked for more. I would give this organization a 100% recommendation. Thank you so much Rebecca and your staff for such caring service. I will never forget the loving care you provided.”

“I can not say enough about Rebekah! She truly was by my side and went through my whole end of life journey with my dad offering me support and guidance. She’s incredibly caring and personable and knowledgeable. She doesn’t just act like she cares… she honestly cares! I know this because we never used her services. My dad’s level of care was not a fit for her company. This did not stop her from working off hours to find help for his unique needs and situation. She kept on mind my mom’s wishes as well to be by his side and both of their personalities. She found things I wouldn’t have been able to find by simply googling because she knows the business and what local companies have to offer. She talked to me as I cried and struggled through the ever-changing circumstances and never left me hanging when i felt scared and hopeless. Thank you Rebekah.. you truly made a difference for me and my family during this heart-wrenching time.”

“Tracy helped me and my mom so much when our situation got iffy. She was on it, setting us up at a board and care to fit my mom’s unique needs, and home health care company to go with it. She did everything. I couldn’t be more thankful to have her during that critical turning point. She’d always stop by and check on my mom at the facility, even brought her a new plant and heartfelt card to the new place. Asks me about her once in a while ???? incredibly caring. I’m even looking to Always Best Care in the state I live to help facilitate a move in the near future because they’ve shown me their trustworthiness. This is something I never was prepared for and turned my world upsidedown. It’s hard enough when faced with the enormity of caring for a loved one in this way. There’s options out there, and there’s help to show you ☝️ Please don’t shoulder this alone, take care of you, too.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Always Best Care and cannot say enough good things about the compassionate, professional team—especially the amazing caregivers who helped my mother over the course of four years. During that time, the caregivers became like extended family. They treated my mom with incredible kindness, respect, and patience, and it gave our family so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Rebecca, the owner, as well as her daughter, Holly, were always responsive and personally involved. They made sure my mom’s needs were met and were there every step of the way. When my mom eventually needed a higher level of care, Rebecca and her team went above and beyond to help us find the perfect Residential Care Facility. Their support during that transition was invaluable. We are deeply grateful for the care, professionalism, and genuine compassion that Always Best Care provided. I highly recommend them to any family looking for reliable, loving in-home care for a loved one.”

“From the very beginning, for about a year I spoke with Tracy Durling about my mom’s situation. Tracy came over and met my mom and we started talking about different assisted living facilities in the area. After about a year we finally were easy to tour some facilities and we decided on one, which was one that Tracy highly recommended. My mom have been there for about 7 months now and she loves it there. If it wasn’t for Tracy and her knowledge of these facilities and the huge heart she has to help people, I truly don’t know how I would have done this on my own. If anyone is looking to put a loved one in assisted living or even have home care, I would most definitely call Always Best Care Senior Services, they are the best and go out of their way to meet your needs.”

“Our ABC caregiver has been excellent. He treats my mentally and physically disabled husband with respect, dignity, and kindness. My husband can be aggressive and angry, but our ABC caregiver has the experience to handle the situation and keep them both safe. This is unlike other caregiving services we have employed, where caregivers just walked out once they found out my husband could get aggressive. I would highly recommend ABC for the care of your loved one.”

“Highly recommend the entire team at Always Best Care in Temecula! We knew absolutely nothing about in-home care when my mom fell ill, but Tracy came in and was a lifesaver. She was compassionate, thoughtful, full of information, and listened carefully to our needs and concerns and then took care of it. We never had to divert our attention away from mom because Tracy was on it. We needed 24/7 assistance, and every single caregiver who came in was so helpful and kind with my mom and with us. They took care of all of her needs and were so considerate to my dad’s needs as well. I don’t know how we would have gotten through her passing without these special people by our side. We were so impressed that we decided to continue with several of the caregivers to help with my dad’s needs and his grief. They have been absolutely amazing with him. The communication with us is phenomenal, from the caregivers to the office team, so we are always kept in the loop. Holly and Rebecca have been beyond patient and have been so very friendly, understanding, and gracious with us and our many requests. We can’t thank them enough for their support through these difficult and emotional times. Our family can always breathe just a little bit easier when the team is with him as we know he will be in good hands.”

“After a great deal of research to pick a home care service for my mother-in-law we chose this one. IT WAS A GREAT CHOICE! Melanie was our first point of contact and she made a GREAT first impression. With only a 1 day notice she was able to schedule Christina to spend a 16 hour shift with my mother-in-law overnight the first night she was home after 1 week in a Kaiser hospital and 2 weeks in a skilled nursing facility. My mother-in-law is sometimes very difficult to please, especially when she is spending money for ANY service! She was delighted with Christina and even gave her hugs when she left the next morning! We highly recommend Always Best Care!”

“Always Best Care has been a blessing for my Mother. Mom was very resistant to having someone in her house to help her. And don’t use the word caregiver with Mom, that would set her off on a angry rant, she was convinced that she didn’t need any help at all, but with Mom’s developing dementia amongst other things she was forgetting to eat and drink on a regular basis, and if she did remember to eat she would put dirty dishes away in the cupboard. And there are many other examples of Mom truly needing help. Along comes Always Best Care and after a month or so, Mom now claims her caregiver is a “very good friend”. A friend that she spends time with, and can talk with and who helps her with shopping etc. (she still does not use the word caregiver). Everyone at Always Best has been very accommodating. Holly in scheduling keeps me in the loop and is very easy to work with for schedule changes when I need them. I would recommend Always Best to anyone that is looking to take care of a loved one in need. Sincerely, Joe”

FAQs About Senior Living Referral Services

Female-Caregiver-Mobile Female-Caregiver-Desktop

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.
