What is assisted living, and what does it provide?
Assisted living is a type of senior housing designed for people who need help with activities of daily living (ADLs). These activities include bathing, dressing, mobility, and eating. Giving up the hassles of life is one of its best benefits.
Residents typically live in their own private or shared apartments. They have access to on-site amenities and assistance when needed. Housekeeping and maintenance services eliminate the burdens of owning a home.
Assisted living communities typically provide 24-hour care, supervision, meals, transportation, and social activities. Sometimes, they may also offer memory care or skilled nursing care.
Staff members provide a personalized level of care. Residents receive assistance with the services they need to live independent lifestyles.

- Declining physical health
- Difficulty keeping up with housework
- Loneliness or isolation
- Difficulty caring for pets
