Enrich Your Life with Assisted Living

Hear from some of our residents’ families here:

“Hillside Terrace is by far the best independent living, assisted living, and memory care in all of Washtenaw County. The staff is kind, building is spotless, and the leadership gets it. If you have not taken the time to research, visit, and talk with their team if your loved one is in need of a care, you are missing out. Highly recommend.”

Jeannie, Google Review

“Hillside Terrace is super unique in the sense that it is family owned which in turn makes you feel like you are a part of their family! My grandma fit right in and LOVES all the outings and activities! She wouldn’t have as much socialization if at home and has made some great friends!”

How Can You Support Your Loved One?

 

One of the most common challenges residents face is adapting to a new environment. To help your loved one cope:

• Encourage open communication: Create a safe space for them to express their feelings. Validate their emotions without judgment.
• Maintain familiar routines: As much as possible, incorporate familiar habits into their new daily life. This can provide a sense of continuity.
• Involve them in decision-making: Allowing them to choose activities, meals, or room decor can empower them and make them feel more in control.   
• Gradually introduce new people and activities: Overwhelming them with social interactions or unfamiliar experiences can be stressful. Progress at their pace.

Understanding Your Options to Pay for Assisted Living

Many Michigan families are facing the challenge of affording assisted living for themselves or loved ones. The good news is there are various financial options available to help manage your costs. 

Understanding Your Options:

• Private Savings: This includes savings, Social Security benefits, pensions, investments, and retirement accounts (401(k), IRA).
• Selling a Home: Equity from selling your home can be a significant resource for assisted living.
• Long-Term Care Insurance: This insurance helps pay for assisted living costs. You should consider plans before age 55 for better premiums.
