Connect-Empower: Older Adult Care Partner

Helping a loved one transition to Assisted Living can feel overwhelming. But fear not! This episode with Kerri Wells is your roadmap to understanding this world and making the best choice for your family.

Here are some golden nuggets to keep in your pocket:

1. Ask the Right Questions: Don't be shy! We'll guide you through essential questions about staffing, turnover rates, surveys, training, activities programs, and staff-resident interactions when exploring assisted living options.
2. Level Up Your Knowledge: Assisted living isn't one-size-fits-all. We'll break down the different levels of care and how they affect costs.
3. Safety First: Peace of mind is priceless. Discover what to look for in security systems and overall facility design. Hints: well-lit areas, call light systems, and secure doors when assessing the safety and security of a facility.
4. The Power of Community: Social interaction fuels happiness! We'll explore how assisted living communities can foster vibrant connections.
5. Open Communication is Key: Let's talk openly and honestly. Address any grievances or concerns promptly, document interactions, and follow up on complaints to ensure a positive living environment.

Ready to take action? Schedule a tour of a local assisted living facility and see the incredible care firsthand. Remember, your loved ones deserve the best, and the right community can transform their quality of life.
