Assisted living is a community of apartments for older adults who need long-term support. Assistance is customized for each individual resident who typically needs help with the activities of daily living (ADLs) — medication support, bathing, dressing, dining or mobility. In assisted living communities, there is a highly trained team on-site 24/7 to assist based on the needs of the individual resident.

Typically, in an assisted living community residents are able to choose from a variety of apartment floor plans to find the one that suits them best. Then they are encouraged to make their own when they move in by bringing their favorite furniture, photographs and other mementos. At 81 Oaks, residents not only have their own private apartment to call home, but are also able to enjoy being part of an inclusive intergenerational neighborhood that includes a school, church, auditorium and park, in addition the community’s expansive outdoor green spaces, an on-site fitness center, a salon and a spa, personalized wellness programs and more.
Because each individual has different support needs and unique lifestyle desires, the decision of when to move to an assisted living community should be based on your personal decision. Generally, adults who need daily assistance with personal tasks like bathing, grooming and dressing will benefit from living in an assisted living community.
At 81 Oaks, a personal assessment by our Wellness Director will help determine your needs and if now is the right time to make your move. This assessment could also determine that more advanced medical care is needed, in which case an assisted living community may not be the best option.
Having the “talk” about assisted living can be challenging and emotional. Your parent may be reluctant to accept help or discuss care options. But, it’s important to try and start this conversation sooner rather than later, so that you can help your parent enhance their quality of life as soon as possible. Here are some tips to help make having this discussion easier:
Nursing homes offer more advanced medical care in a more clinical setting, and often residents share a room. In addition, nursing homes focus on 24/7 nursing care where residents are monitored day and night, and receive some medical treatments on-site.
In an assisted living community like 81 Oaks, residents have the freedom to move about the many welcoming community spaces and also enjoy the comfort and privacy of their own apartment. Here, our steadfast commitment is to enable each resident to thrive every day by staying active and connected, experiencing life in new ways, and have a great time doing it all.
It’s important to determine what’s best for you. While aging-in-place may be more budget-friendly, it can also be isolating for older adults who want to lead more active social lives. In addition, aging-in-place doesn’t offer the comprehensive support that is part of an assisted living community designed to enhance well-being in every way.
When it comes to cost, assisted living may be more affordable than you think. Once you factor in all your bills with at-home living (including utilities, property taxes, maintenance, etc.), you may find that community living is about the same price — but offers so much more.
