Assisted Living

When you or a loved one considers making a move to an assisted living community, it is important that you know what kind of care you are going to be getting. While most of the care providers in the state are earnest people who really do want to provide the best care to everyone who comes through their door, there are some providers for whom this is not the case. Doing thoughtful research on the communities that you are considering is a must in order to ensure a successful placement.

Assisted living in Arizona isn’t cheap, but when it comes time and us or our loved ones need extra care, assisted living is one the less expensive options. There are different types of assisted living including residential care homes (also known as group homes), supervisory care, and skilled nursing. In a supervisory care center, the least amount of care is needed. Often only medication monitoring and meals are necessary. Light housekeeping is also sometime included. Another name for this would be senior independent living. Residential care homes (also known as group homes), provide 24 hour a day assistance.
