Assisted living refers to a type of long-term care facility that provides assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, and grooming, as well as medication management, meals, housekeeping, laundry, transportation, and social and recreational activities. Assisted living facilities are designed to provide a comfortable and safe living environment for seniors or individuals with disabilities who require some assistance with daily tasks, but who do not need the level of medical care provided by a nursing home.
Most assisted living facilities provide services such as assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, and grooming, medication management, meals, housekeeping, laundry, transportation, social and recreational activities, and access to healthcare services. Some facilities may also offer additional services such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, and memory care for residents with dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
