Is assisted living facility for you?


 
Seniors
Many people love to live their life independently, but feel handicapped at times as you have to rely on their friends and family members for almost everything. But, they have a question in their mind, that is, Is there a need for assisted living in my life? If this question is ringing in your minds too, make sure to read the article below which has a number of questions. An assisted living facility is right for you if you have an affirmative answer to the noted questions.

Is there a need for assisted living in my life? Many people have this question in their minds, but rarely do people think about it, in detail.

An assisted living facility is right for you if you have an affirmative answer to the following questions:

1. Your family and friends are helping you, but is there a need for more? It is often seen that family and friends are helping their loved ones and working hard to see them happy. However, at times the circumstances are such that one cannot give their best. This can happen in cases like feeling sick, feeling tired, having other commitments and other such activities. This can force the daily schedule to become stressful and overwhelming for the care taker and the dependent. Assisted living facility can help bridge the gap in this case.

2. Is there a feeling of isolation or loneliness at home? It is a known fact that an active social life is important for one's happiness and health. If you are alone most of the time, depression will be the result. Assisted living facility ensures that people here with have a happy social time with others and staff members. An added advantage is that the community environment can encourage people to meet and make new friends.

3. Is safety a concern? When your loved ones are out for a party or the care taker has taken an uninformed leave, you might feel afraid to even move out of your bed. This restricts your mobility, and it turns worse in case of an emergency. In case of an assisted living, you can be assured that there will be at lease one person to make sure that you are fine and happy.

4. Is maintaining a home tiring? Many people carry out their daily tasks on their own. If one is living in their own home, there might be a number of responsibilities such as doing laundry, shopping for groceries, cleaning and cooking. Carrying out these tasks, you might feel tired and stressed. Also, asking for helper might seem costly as they have their fixed time schedules and do not usually work for longer hours. In case of an assisted living facility, you can be sure that you can live in a home-like atmosphere and still be away from the noted tasks.

5. Transportation is not easy. Do you have this thought in your mind? After a certain age, driving can be troublesome. There may be a number of reasons for that. Some reasons are weak eyesight, weak knees and back problems. With these problems, public transportation or any other option is even not viable. However, an assisted living facility takes care of this and offers transportation so that one can feel they are independent.

If your answers are affirmative, make sure to have a brief discussion on this topic with your loved ones. Also, list down a couple of reputed assisted living facilities so that you can be relaxed and feel independent.
