Assisted Living Facilities
Assisted Living is a combination of housing, personalized supportive services and health care designed to meet the individual needs of persons who need help with the activities of daily living such as bathing, but do not need the skilled medical care provided in a nursing home.
Assisted living is a philosophy of service that focuses on maximizing each resident's independence and dignity. This emphasizes flexibility, individualized supportive services and health care. Involvement of the community, as well as the residents' family, neighbors and friends is encouraged. The availability of staff to meet scheduled and unexpected care needs is a major aspect of assisted living care giving
