Find Local Assisted Living Facilities

The National Center for Assisted Living has estimated that there are almost 40,000 assisted living facilities across the US with a total population of around 1 million residents. Many families are forced to select an Assisted Living Facility or Nursing Home under significant pressure and with very little experience on the selection process. In many cases, seniors move to an assisted living facility or nursing home after a traumatic event like a stroke, aneurysms or fall. Whether moving directly from a hospital or from another special care facility after successful treatment, assisted living can be a short-term or long-term housing arrangement. Selecting an Assisted living facility is critical to the stability and health of a senior and is challenging because the expense is not cover by Medicare.

This site is design to help both seniors and families of senior. In many cases senior need the support of their families to help them with their housing and finances. The responsible family members must research and help their parent make some difficult transitions. Often time, older adults don't make the plans that include changes in health. This can include issues with health care, housing, transportation or finances. Some of the common task that people can manage at a young age can be very difficult for seniors. This site is designed to help both the seniors and those helping the elderly.

This site include information about assisted living facilities including reviews and feedback by residents. Since many assisted living communities require a significant deposit (5000$ or more) to move in, it is important to know everything possible about the business. Since most people prefer a assisted living facility or nursing home near their current residence, we developed an advanced search (Find All Facitilites) to get a list of surrounding facilities sorted by the distance from your home address.

This site will cover several different issues that are critical to seniors. One of these issues is transportation. Many adult live behind the wheel of a car and it is difficult for seniors to let go of their car. Hiring a driver is also a very expensive option. This is just one of the many topic to be reviewed in future articles. In addition to assisted-living, this site will try to address the following areas:

  • Retirement Communities: For those aging adult who want to focus on social activities and less on home maintenance, Retirement communities are the best option.
  • Independent living: Many of these facilities are closer to a resort than a senior support center.
  • Assisted living: Once a senior has a health issue, many need some limited care. Assisted living facilities allow senior with some minor health issues to really enjoy life.
  • Nursing Homes: For more serious health problems, nursing homes are required. These facilities offer 24 hour support for seniors.
  • Memory Care: These facilities have special resources to help with older adults that may have a hard time finding their way around a building due to memory loss. The quality of life in these facilities is limited but there is frequently no other option.
