You may recognize the early signs of a loved one who needs more help, or maybe your loved one has an illness or disability that requires more care. Whatever your reasons for searching for an assisted living facility in the Fort Worth area, you’ve probably already realized how many options are available to you. Here’s a quick overview of the types of facility you may want to consider.
Assisted Living
Assisted living as a long-term care option that combines housing, support services and health care, as needed. There are ranges of care provided at assisted living facilities depending on an individual’s needs.
Assisted Living with Dementia Care
Some assisted living facilities are considered “Special Care Units” for people with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia. Facility logistics, staffing, and programs are designed specifically to address dementia related care.
Congregate Housing
Congregate Housing is similar to independent living except that it usually provides convenience or supportive services like meals, housekeeping, and transportation in addition to rental housing.
Nursing Homes
Nursing homes provide care of chronic conditions or short term convalescent or rehabilitative care. Some residents are admitted for short stays of convalescent or rehabilitative care following hospitalization.
