What Are The Benefits Of Assisted Living Placements?

If you’re a senior in Central Ohio, or if you have a loved one living here, it’s important to know how an assisted living placement might benefit you.

1. An Assisted Living Placement Helps You Find The Right Community For You And Your Family.

There are many senior living communities in Central Ohio. This is good because it means you have many options. But it’s bad because you have many options. The paradox of choice describes the phenomenon that means making a decision is more difficult to make when you have more than a few options. Which one is the best?

Always Best Care of North Columbus can help. We’ll sit down with you and your family in your or their Central Ohio home and go over all your options. We’ll tell you about the different services offered by different communities. We’ll go over the different architecture, locations, and prices available. We’ll even give you personal tours of the communities in which you’re interested. After you’ve chosen your preferred community, we’ll work hard to get you or your loved one placed and settled in that community.

2. An Assisted Living Placement Helps You Understand All The Lingo.

Did you know that an assisted living community is not necessarily the same as a senior living community? Or a senior care community? Or a long-term care center? Not everybody knows this and, if you don’t work in the care sector, why would you? We do know and we can teach you what you need to know when making a decision.

All assisted living communities are senior care communities, but not vice versa. The term “senior care community”, or “long-term care center”, is an umbrella one that includes assisted living communities. Assisted living balances care and independence.  Assisted living is great for people who need some assistance to be healthy and safe, but who can still manage their own lives‌.

Nursing homes are also long-term care centers. These facilities are for people with high-level needs who can’t be expected to manage their own lives to any significant degree. Memory care homes, also called Alzheimer’s and dementia homes, are for people with neurodegenerative diseases or for people who have suffered brain trauma. Last, independent living communities, or retirement homes, are senior living communities, not care communities. The staff there doesn’t provide personal care.
