As your loved ones age, the last thought that comes to mind is finding an assisted living community for them. As much as you want them to be physically close by, there are several benefits your elderly loved ones can stand to enjoy by moving to an assisted living community.
Not sure if you would like to move your loved one into an assisted living community? If you notice your loved one needing help with activities of daily living or is unable to cope with household chores, it may be time to move them into assisted living. Here are the top reasons why moving to assisted living can be a great decision for your elderly loved ones.
Prevents Depression and Social Isolation
If your elderly loved ones are living alone, they may develop feelings of isolation, depression, and loneliness which can cause serious health concerns for them. Being in an assisted living community will encourage them to socialize with others.
At Morada Burleson, our assisted living program encourages participation in several daily activities and events such as live music shows, visits to restaurants around, games, arts and crafts, and much more. These activities will help to prevent depression and self-isolation by improving your loved one’s physical and mental wellness.
Independence and Fun
Even though an assisted living community offers your loved ones customized care services, they will still enjoy their freedom. Our team members understand adults value their freedom over anything else. Our assisted living program allows your elderly loved ones to do what they can when they can without restrictions.
Improved Quality of Life
If you find that you are unable to be present with your loved one at all times, consider assisted living. At Morada Burleson, our team members will ensure that every of your elderly loved one’s needs are met. We provide your loved ones with the high quality of life that they deserve.
Safety
As your elderly loved one may experience reductions in balance, hearing, and mobility which can increase the risks of accidents, we have put together safety measures in place. Our assisted living community is designed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for adults. We also offer alarm systems, smoke detectors, and other accident control systems to ensure the safety of our residents.
Health and Fitness Opportunities
Regular exercise is an effective way to prevent disease and improve mental health. Likewise, fitness can boost energy, balance, and strength when it’s taken seriously.
Our assisted living community here at Morada Burleson is well equipped with fitness and wellness programs. You can be assured that your loved one will remain healthy and maintain a healthy lifestyle in our care.
Medical Care
Medical care is a top priority when it comes to taking care of your elderly loved ones. Our facilities have certified nursing assistants that will help your loved ones with their needs, from personal hygiene to medications and more.
