Many older adults cling to the idea of living in their own home and stubbornly refuse to accept the fact that their declining medical conditions may be putting their very safety at risk in their present living situation. This is when family members need to step in and help make some decisions.
In the best scenario, we typically want to make changes in things as important as our living situation with careful thought, but unfortunately, many older adults do not have such plans in place. This reluctance to plan ahead means lots of families are unaware of today’s various senior living options, which include assisted living, independent living, skilled nursing facilities, family group homes, memory care, and continuing care communities. As you sort through the best care options for your parent, start by honestly assessing their medical conditions, their mobility, and care requirements. In addition experts say to try and determine what the future holds for your loved one as you do not want to get them settled into a home and quickly realized it is not equipped to provide the care they now need. One senior living option is assisted living, which is designed to provide your parent help with their ADLs (activities of daily living) in order to allow them to live as independently as possible. Most assisted living communities have tiered levels of care, which means as your parent’s needs increase the home will be able to address them. At MorningStar of Santa Fe, we offer unsurpassed senior living that includes assisted living and memory care.
