Aging affects people in different ways. At various points in life, different plans of care may be necessary to attend to unique personal or medical needs. The goal throughout the aging process is to ensure that loved ones are safe, comfortable, and their physical, social, and emotional needs are addressed in a compassionate, caring manner.
Depending on a person’s level of independence and care requirements, an independent living facility or assisted living facility may be a better option than remaining in their own home.
Assisted Living
For people who require more support with the activities of life, assisted living is the next level of care available. Residents enjoy the privacy of a private or semi-private apartment-like space, but receive skilled nursing help with things like bathing, dressing, medication management, and assistance transferring to and from wheelchairs. Arboreta Assisted Living Communities provide community amenities like dining programs, daily social activities, transportation to medical appointments, and in-house therapy programs.
