Which Option Is Right For You?
Brightview communities offer a range of living options such as Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Alzheimer’s Care. Deciding which type of arrangement is right for you depends on the amount of assistance needed with day-to-day activities. Below are descriptions and a set of questions to help you make the right choice.
Independent Living
This hassle-free lifestyle provides you with all the comforts and services that make life easier and more fun. Is it right for you? Ask yourself:
- Is your current house or property causing more hassles than happiness?
- Is difficulty driving at night or in heavy traffic preventing you from getting out?
- Would on-site services and conveniences give you more time and freedom to do the things you love?
If you answered “yes” to one or more of these questions, choose Independent Living.
Assisted Living
Assisted living is the right option if some personal assistance and support is needed to help maintain independence and enjoy a safe, social and well-rounded day. Have you found that:
- Managing the timing and dosages of daily medications is a problem?
- Conditions such as arthritis or other physical limitations make it difficult to get dressed without assistance?
- Reduced strength or stability creates a safety issue when bathing?
If you answered “yes” to one or more of these questions, choose Assisted Living.
Alzheimer's Care
For those with Alzheimer’s or other forms of memory limitation, specialized care and a supportive environment can help increase an individual’s quality of life, enable them to live to their full potential — and restore peace of mind to families, too. Do you notice that:
- Quality of life is decreasing because of Alzheimer’s or dementia?
- Memory loss is creating an unsafe home environment or fire hazard?
- Daily living activities are becoming more difficult to manage?
If you answered “yes” to one or more of these questions, choose Alzheimer’s Care.
