Help in Finding Assisted Living Group Homes
As the population ages, more and more families are looking for assisted living group homes and facilities in the Murphy TX and DFW areas. Not all assisted living facilities are the same. There are many different levels of care that help define an assisted living facility. Levels of care in assisted living facilities are often based on the specific needs of the person. Here are some questions that determine the level of care a facility offers (and charges for):
- Can the person safely take care of their bathing needs?
- Can the person dress without assistance, including find motor functions such as zipping and buttoning?
- Can the person take care of grooming needs such as shaving, brushing hair, and brushing teeth?
- How much mobility assistance does the person need?
- Can the person manage any incontinence issues without assistance?
- How many caregivers does the person need, and how often?
- Does the person need assistance eating?
- Does the person need injectable medications?
- Does the person need assistance with laundry?
- Does the person have a specialized condition that requires extra care, such as dementia?
Assisted Living in Murphy TX and DFW Areas
With all these consideration about levels of care, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when choosing an assisted living facility for your loved one. In the Murphy TX area, you have a source that can help you navigate through the many challenges of finding an assisted living facility for your loved one. In 2008, I was faced with this same issue as my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. That experience inspired me to create a FREE service to help other families just like I helped this person, below. Contact me today to get your free guide.
My mom was struggling in the Assistant Living facility that she was in prior to where she is now. When we realized that mom needed more individual care than she was able to get at this facility, I contacted Senior Living Specialists. The thing that I liked most about the service was the fact that they understood we had to “take care of business” quickly. They were very forthcoming with ideas and immediately suggested I call a Murphy Assisted Living Group Home. They were very knowledgeable about the area we wanted to stay in and never tried to “up sell” us with any more than I was looking for. I have recommended Senior Living Specialists to a couple of friends already. I also know my sister has given their contact information to a good friend who was in “crisis mode” to help her loved one. I will continue to recommend both Senior Living Specialists to anybody that I can. ~ Anne, Murphy, TX
