About Destin, Florida Assisted Living
Many people confuse assisted living with nursing home care. Nursing home care is for elderly care. The care is much more intensive without the freedom of independent living.
Assisted living is also not like in home senior care. In home senior care is limited and may not provide the adequate care seniors need to live alone.
Assisted living is a supportive environment that provides seniors the assistance they need with activities of daily living, such as grooming, and cleaning. They also provide assistance with medication and health management. Seniors receive individualized care, meaning each resident only receives as much or as little care as they need.
When seniors decide on assisted living, they enter into a continuing care retirement community, or CCRC. This community may contain a building with many personal rooms for residents to inhabit or it may have senior apartment or single family homes for seniors to share or live in alone.
For Destin seniors to live in a CCRC, they can expect to pay approximately $3,404 per month.
