The Many Benefits of Assisted Living in Ann Arbor!

If you’re thinking of looking into a senior living facility for a loved one, you may be wrestling with the decision. There are a lot of negative connotations about senior and assisted living – no one wants to put their relative “in a home.” But modern senior living facilities offer a myriad of benefits that can help you feel better about your decision.

Social relationships can be hard for older adults to maintain, especially if they live alone and are unable to travel independently. The close proximity of neighbors in senior living facilities strengthen these social bonds.

Chef-prepared meals: In addition to relieving seniors of the burden of shopping and cooking for themselves, senior living facilities provide your adult relatives with a variety of nutritious meals, including diabetes-friendly options. Proper nutrition goes a long way toward improving these seniors’ quality of life. 

Round-the-clock assistance: Basic tasks like dressing and bathing can be very difficult for some aging adults. It usually befalls family caregivers to attend to these tasks, but for many, the level of help a senior relative requires far exceeds the help their family can give. It is the primary function of assisted living facilities to help seniors with these tasks while also enabling them to be as independent as possible.

Activities: Senior living facilities are outfitted with fitness equipment, indoor recreation areas and outdoor spaces offering a multitude of activity options for older adults. In addition, senior living facilities offer daily or weekly activities like bingo, exercise classes, book clubs and outings to local stores and museums.
