Assisted Living
Supportive Care for Everyday Senior Needs
Assisted living is a type of senior living that provides personalized support services in a residential setting, often in a home-like environment. It's designed for older adults who need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, grooming, and medication management, but don't require the extensive medical care provided in nursing homes.
