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:

“I cannot thank Sanjay and the staff enough for everything they have provided for both my mother and me during one of the most difficult and challenging times in our lives. I have been a RN for 35+ years, with over 25 years in hospice-home health care and thought I truly understood the needs of the family when a loved one needs care. I never realized how much more complicated total responsibility for an elderly family member can be. When my 93 year old, blind, HoH, mother lost her partner of 45 years and could no longer live independently, (her partner was her caregiver), the staff from Always Best Care provided much needed in home care, support, and companionship for my mother while arrangements were being made for her to move into an Assisted Living Facility. They were not only there for scheduled hours, but were available for additional hours on short notice in urgent situations. The support I received was incredible! Thanks to all, especially Sanjay, Kylie, Jen, and Zy. You made a difficult situation much easier. I would and will recommend your agency to anyone needing Homecare services. You have truly been a blessing! ????????????”
“I’m a niece of a senior that Always Best Care and they are awesome. “Kind, caring and patient!!””
“I recently had the pleasure of meeting Kelly Klein with Always Best Care. Kelly was friendly, engaging, and professional throughout our conversation. It’s encouraging to connect with others who share an interest in supporting seniors and their families in our community.”
“Excellent care!! Edwin caregiver has been a blessing to my father. His care and compassion is truly amazing. Ashley care nurse and case manager there is not enough words to express my family’s love for her. She truly is amazing woman. I would highly recommend Always Best Care”
“Professional, caring and very responsive. Open to answering questions and helping you understans. I would highly recommend.”
“Always Best Care Senior Services truly understands the importance of providing compassionate care, support, and peace of mind to seniors and their families. Their commitment to helping individuals maintain their dignity, independence, and quality of life is what makes their services so valuable. I’m soooo appreciative of your team!❤️”

“When you think about long term care, think ☆ALWAYS BEST CARE SENIOR SERVICES.☆ The owner specializes in real and professional services and care. Exceptional service!!”
“The entire staff at Always Best Care treated my mother and all of our family with great compassion. The care my mother received was excellent. From intake to service closure they were so helpful and skilled. I will be sure to call them should my father need care.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Melanie is great to work with and really cares about helping families find the right care for their loved ones. Always Best Care is a great resource for families navigating home care and senior living options. I appreciate the work they do in the community and would definitely recommend reaching out to Melanie if you need help finding care.”
“In a word, amazing. We were completely blind as to the process of getting our mother the appropriate level of care; ABC became all of our senses. Seamlessly and patiently guiding us every step of the way. The entire Care Team were responsive, professional and compassionate…..and led by an exceptional owner, Phil. I strongly endorse ABC OF Tacoma for any caregiving needs. We were blessed to have them on our side”
“Always Best Care (Phil) came to my rescue on very short notice. Took immediate action and provided us with care coverage during a very stressful time. All caregivers were compassionate and friendly. Even though my husband has Lewy body dementia, they hung in there and gave great care of him and gave guidance to redirect when whenever needed. Thank you to Phil, Kelly and each caregiver. Much appreciated.”
“I don’t know how my family would have gotten through this new chapter in my parents’ lives without Always Best Care. My mom had a second stroke, and my dad was recently diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimers. I had to quickly move on getting in-home care (caregiver, PT, OT, RN) for Mom, while beginning to look at Assisted Living Facilities. Every wonderful human who entered my parents’ home not only provided incredible care, from helping prepare Mom and Dad to move, organizing, to PT/OT and med management, but they were all a breath of fresh air for all of us during a difficult time…Shaz, Lana, Luciano, Anisa, Jeremy…thank you for taking such good care of my parents. Renee did the initially heavy lifting to tour Assisted Living Facilities and trimmed them down to a few based on our requirements. She spent entire days with my husband and myself, meeting with ALF and being an advocate to us to find the best match for their needs. Tracy kept me posted without fail on any caregiver schedule changes. She was such a calming presence, a great listener, and a always seemed to cheer me up when I needed it. Sara and Darlene, your compassion and passion for what you do is apparent in everything communication. The second we started using your services, I knew my parents were in good hands. And for me personally, I don’t know how I’ll ever thank you enough for how you supported ME through this. This is a hard transition for families, all family members…your honesty (even when it’s hard to say and hear) was so appreciated. Your words of encouragement and support and the periodic shoulders to lean and cry on made me feel like I had a team in my corner. Thank you a million times over, I will be paying it forward to others who are looking for these services and sending them your way.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Always Best Care Senior Care. The agency sent us Eve to care for a 96-year-old family friend who had just returned from a lengthy rehab stay. This patient needed complete care including bathing, dressing and meals. Eve was extremely loving, exceedingly compassionate, and very professional. The ABC agency even assisted me with getting/removing a bed and box spring for the live-in aide which I believe was above and beyond the normal service range of expectations. In short, I found Always Best Care to be very accommodating and willing to work with us on every need. I would highly recommend them. Mary Lou”
“Excellent company for senior care services and the staff really cares for their patients and their staff members.”
“My father says; I started out with a great caregiver. He left for another job. Then I had a few who weren’t good, but the caregiver I have now is excellent. She adapted immediately to my needs, required minimum direction, is personable, and cheerful. She does my shopping, takes care of putting on my compression stockings, gets my newspapers and mail, laundry, whatever else i need done in the house, and is a good conversationalist.”
“We recently moved my mom to Virginia, and Always Best Care was right there to help us every step of the way. My mom has Alzheimer’s, and we were unsure how to move her safely and calmly, especially since she didn’t fully understand what was happening. Traveling by plane and arriving at National Airport added another layer of stress. Jonathan connected us with Bruce from Always Best Care in South Carolina, and together, both offices and our family coordinated Mom’s move. The South Carolina staff was great, and Mom’s caregiver moved her schedule around so she could travel with Mom. She was incredibly kind and gentle and stayed with Mom throughout the entire flight. Always Best Care also recommended medical transportation from the airport to her new facility. The driver was compassionate and took great care to make sure Mom was comfortable and safe. In the days following, another kind and compassionate caregiver immediately connected with Mom and helped make her transition to her new home a wonderful experience. Always Best Care was truly the answer our family needed. We are so thankful to Jonathan and Rashid for helping us navigate this difficult season and for treating Mom with such genuine kindness, dignity, and care. We highly recommend Always Best Care!”
“Ann Marie is an exceptional caregiver. Her kindness and reliability are outstanding!”
“When I contacted Always Best Care, my primary need was reliable, safe transportation to and from a medical appointment. From the outset, Mr. Rashid Farrell went beyond simply arranging a ride. Mr. Farrell, along with a nurse, took the time to review my medical background and conduct a thorough health assessment to ensure my safety and comfort. This personalized approach gave me confidence that my well-being was their top priority. Even though my transportation needs later changed, the company’s commitment to quality and care remained consistent. They adapted seamlessly to my new requirements, maintaining the same level of attention to detail. The staff’s professionalism, empathy, and genuine concern for my needs made the experience not just convenient, but truly caring. I highly recommend Always Best Care to anyone seeking transportation services that combine reliability with compassionate, individualized care. They have earned my trust and loyalty!”
“Rashid and his team from Always Best Care of Fairfax were truly partners with our family as we together provided care for my husband when he needed it. As my husband’s care needs increased, ABC never failed to step up to provide the additional services and dedicated care necessary and, when needed, the recommendations for rehab and other outside services. Rashid is the kindest, most patient and most responsive owner/operator of any business I have ever worked with – both in healthcare and otherwise. I cannot imagine having gone through this part of our lives without Rashid and his team. Ms. Martine was also always very responsive every time she was needed, often as an emergency and after hours. Ms. Genet was with us the longest and we were always happy to see her. In her low-key professional manner, she successfully encouraged him to do all he could with physical therapy and other activities. Ms. Stacey spent many long hours with us and was always patient and supportive to both of us and provided excellent care as did Ms. Benica and Ms. Salay. Ms. Jidy was with us at the end of our journey and was truly a Godsend to both of us. I will be forever grateful to Rashid and his team and will never forget their dedication, support and kindness to us.”
“I was very fortunate to learn about Always Best Care while helping my parents find a retirement community. Sanjay and Dylan were extremely helpful in guiding us through the search…there are lots of things I did not even consider that Sanjay and Dylan brought to our attention with their expertise. They were both very compassionate and transparent as we navigated the search and I am now very confident that we have found the best retirement community for my parents. Thanks Sanjay and Dylan!”
“HUGE Thank You to Phil and the staff at Always Best Care especially Shelby! They have helped tremendously with my parents transition into living with Alzheimers. I worry much less about my dad’s wellbeing on a daily basis and love the way Shelby treats him with compassion and unyielding consistency.”
“Always Best Care provided companion care for my mom. Their hours are flexible at an affordable hourly rate. It was necessary to reschedule the care companion a few times and staff handled this without difficulty. Andrea conducted the initial interview with my mom and was kind and professional. It became necessary to move mom to a memory care unit and Andrea’s help with this process was invaluable. She went far and above expectations and I am extremely grateful for all her help.”
“There is not enough words to express how wonderful Tracy is, and how much we appreciate all the wonderful care she has given our parents.”
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.
