Assisted Living's 24/7 Care Helps to Maintain Your Independence
If you or a loved one is in need of daily care to ensure your safety and wellbeing, you may be weighing options such as in-home care services versus assisted living. Most experts suggest a good way to start is to make a list of all the areas in which you or your loved one needs assistance on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.
From a strictly affordable standpoint (we know there is much more to it), the rule of thumb to determine if in-home care services or an assisted living community is less expensive is does the person require more than 40 hours of paid care a week? If that’s the case, then assisted living is most likely cheaper.
Also remember that in-home care is a piecemeal approach and each additional service you need adds to the cost of care. Moreover in senior living communities like MorningStar’s Casa Sandoval, individuals in assisted living receive 24/7 care from our compassionate, trained care managers in the activities of daily living (ADL). Another benefit of our assisted living community is it is designed to accommodate wheelchairs and other mobile aids as well as has bathrooms equipped with handicap grab bars, and suites equipped with emergency call systems.
Many people get sticker shock when they learn how much they will pay for assisted living, but you need to remember that virtually all your living expenses including food as well as care services are factored in. No longer will you pay out-of-pocket for home insurance, property taxes, heat, electricity, trash pickup, cable, and Internet service. In addition you will not be hit with unexpected repair bills and routine upkeep on your home.
Other services and amenities Casa Sandoval provides to our residents include a fitness center, a movie theatre, beautifully prepared meals served restaurant-style, enrichment activities, and more.
