Taking the first steps toward a move into an assisted living facility isn’t always easy. Buy many people find that once they get past some of their initial fears and concerns, the process gets easier. If at all possible, pre-planning can make the process go much more smoothly. Not all families have the luxury of taking their time looking for an Grapevine assisted living facility. When you do, consider these steps:
- Reassure your loved one that the nothing needs to happen right away. When the process is more gradual, your loved one will feel more in control.
- Focus your conversations on planning for the future, not taking action today.
- Focus on ways assisted living allows people to maintain independence while offering care critical to their health and safety.
- Make your loved one part of the process as much as possible, offering options at every step along the way.
Assisted Living Options in Grapevine
If you’re embarking on the process of finding assisted living for a loved one, I know just how you feel. In 2008, I was faced with the issue of finding specialized care for my mother when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. With so many assisted living facilities in the Grapevine 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 Dorothy and her family, below. Contact me today to get your free guide.
Your services at Senior Living Specialists were priceless for our family! Since I am free to spend time with Dad now, we decided to move him to Texas. Having no knowledge of extended care retirement homes in the DFW area and therefore no understanding of those facilities with space available, the prospect of moving Dad from Michigan to Dallas appeared to be a daunting task. However, your expert knowledge and guidance led us to exactly the right Dallas Assisted Living Center for Dad. Your assistance was immensely helpful for us. More people need to know of your service. We intend to tell all those we know of your wonderful support. Our family wishes to express its grateful thanks for your magnificent service.
