You love your Mom or Dad or other aging relative but you are now noticing little things that are causing you concern. This loved one is having a little trouble keeping the house clean or they have begun cooking and eating microwave dinners and skipping meals that require more time and attention in the kitchen. It is time to consider talking to them about moving into an assisted care facility.
Assisted living options are not to be confused with a nursing home. Residents are not considered patients where they are housed in rooms with one or more people whom they may not even know or like. Assisted living is an option for independent people who are find they need a little assistance with one or more ADL.
These family members are by no means helpless; they just need a little help once in awhile. Assisted living arrangements give them the freedom to continue living their lives in the relative privacy of their own home yet have 24 hour access to staff who will assist your loved one. Staff are on hand to cook meals, help cook a meal, assist someone with a disability into and out of the shower or tub or drive out to your favorite restaurant. Respect for your loved one is paramount to good service. When considering these residential homes in the Minnetonka, Minnesota area you’ll be able to discuss your needs and concerns. Community areas are open where you are invited to stroll through and see how other residents. The cost of living in one of these facilities usually includes meals which can be served in the individual living areas or served in a communal dining area. Most of these living facilities are built as a single level unit meaning that should your loved one become unable to stand, walk or climb stairs at any time during their residency they will not have to be moved to another unit. Residents who need daily medication will be attended by an on staff nurse specifically schooled in assisting with medications or physical therapy. Some facilities have, on location, physical therapy units that are fully staffed. Facilities not equipped with this offer a car service that will safely transport your loved one to and from doctor appointments or therapy visits.
Full service facilities provide recreational excursions for the residents where they can be taken to the movies, the mall, hair appointments or even a leisurely drive around one of the many beautiful lakes in the area. Moving to one of these facilities is a blessing to family members who cannot live with their loved one yet want the peace of mind knowing that they are being taken care of.
