When you are choosing out an assisted living facility for your loved one, you will want to make sure that any facility you choose will have the necessary services that your elderly loved one needs. This can range depending on the facility, so visiting them, looking around, and asking some questions will be so important when it comes to getting this done. Some of the different services that you can  find in assisted living facilities include:

 

# Individual service plans that are tailored to the individual. The licensed staff will be there to provide support to your loved one 24-hours a day. There will be a document for the resident that will state their goals based on their health and behavior history and even personal preferences. This can help the team figure out the best way to take care of your loved one and give them the help they need.

# Resident dining that will serve them three meals a day with the right nutrition at each one.

# Medication management if the resident will need help remembering and taking their medicine.

# Weekly help with the housekeeping to make the area look nice as well as linen and laundry services for the resident.

# Emergency call system where an on-site nurse is able to get there quickly if there happens to be an emergency that shows up.
# Different programs to keep the residents busy such as educational program, recreational things to do, social times, and even things with religion.
# Transportation to the store, shopping, and even to the hospital for appointments.

 

These facilities will offer different levels of care, depending on how much help the resident will need. Communities can have a few different levels, which allows the resident to move up them as they need it, without having to move out of their new home or find a different facility. The levels of care that the assisted living facility will provide can depend on the geographical location sometimes.
