Do you have a loved one who needs the care available from an assisted retirement living facility? No matter how strong that need is, there are always some barriers to making the move. Sometimes, people don’t always have all the right information regarding their options. Here are a few fears people have about making the move to an assisted retirement living facility, and the reality that will help you overcome them.
Fear: Assisted living means I’ll lose my independence
Reality: An assisted living facility gives you your own space, plus the help you need.
Fear: If I have to move away from my family, no one will be around to help me.
Reality: The 24-hour staff at an assisted retirement facility means help will be even closer wen you need it.
Fear: Moving to a facility means I’ll have to give up my hobbies
Reality: It’s more likely you’ll have more to do at an assisted retirement living facility. Many places have programs for activities such as gardening, fitness, bingo, cards, and book clubs.
Senior assisted living communities are designed to reduce the fears often associated with living alone. While people sometimes have to give up a little, they often gain even more.
How to Find Assisted Retirement Living Dallas
I understand the importance of having support as you search for a senior living option. I was faced with the issue of finding specialized care for my mother when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2008. With so many care assisted living facilities here in the Dallas area, it took a lot of research and investigation of my own to find the right place. That experience inspired me to create a FREE service to help other families just like I helped Bob, below. Contact me today to get your free guide.
