What is assisted living?

Take a full look at the question, "what is assisted living?" Here's a brief summary:

Assisted living is designed for seniors with some health limitations. Residences here offer assistance with things like mobility, bathing, dressing and medication management. They also take care of tiresome household chores, like cooking, cleaning and laundry.

Maintain independence while getting the assistance you need

Moving into assisted living does not mean you are giving up your independence. In fact, residences encourage independence! They provide the care and assistance needed for seniors to continue living happy, fulfilled lives in retirement. All-inclusive pricing includes a beautiful suite, dining, and access to amenities.

Many suites in the residences listed here come with a kitchenette that includes a fridge, sink, and counter space. You still have the freedom to indulge in all your favourite snacks, or cook a light meal for yourself (but only if you desire!). You also get to choose how to spend your day. Assisted living residences come with a full slate of daily activity options. You may have a hard time choosing between afternoon billiards, a spa treatment, or a walk outside in the sun! Assisted living provides the care you need, right in your own home, so that you have the freedom to craft your day as you please.

Leave your worries behind

Many seniors struggle with things like mobility and cooking as they age. This can bring about some safety and accessibility concerns. Assisted living allows you to push those worries from your mind. Not only do residences accommodate the mobility and accessibility needs of older residents, they also provide support and care.

If you or your loved one struggles to remember to take medication, staff in assisted living can help by setting up medication reminders. If their social life has been compromised due to mobility concerns, assisted living gives them a means to fill their social calendars! There is also 24/7 emergency assistance, should they ever need it.

One family member enthused about the dedicated and caring staff in an Oshawa retirement home, affirming staff is “willing to go the extra mile to ensure [my mother] was comfortable and safe. I can't praise them enough for providing a warm, caring environment for my mom....and for myself and our family.” Many families attest that they now rest worry-free, knowing they or their loved one is fully taken care of.

Assisted living allows many to regain control of their life. With a little extra care, you are able to leave so many stressors behind. It’s time to enjoy all the perks of retirement!
