RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES & HOMES

I cannot live at home anymore and may require some assistance. What are my options?

Independent living includes social activities and community spaces but sometimes no meal or medical services.

Assisted living offers services from medical to housekeeping. Units are often included in facilities that also offer memory care. Each facility offers planned activities for residents.

Memory care offers services such as reminiscence therapy that work to restore or maintain as much memory as possible. Heightened care is available to residents who have different kinds of dementia.

Hospice care is offered for those facing diagnoses that leave them with six months or less to live. The person must decide against further curative treatment. Hospice staff work to care for an individual in his or her last months of life in the most comfortable way.
