Assisted Living
Assisted Living communities are designed as a special combination of housing, personalized supportive services and health care for seniors who are no longer able to live on their own safely, but do not require the high level of care provided in a nursing home. Assistance with medications, activities of daily living, meals and housekeeping are routinely provided. Three meals per day are provided in a central dining room. Residents live in their own private apartments, which frequently have a limited kitchen area. Staff is available 24-hours per day for additional safety. Most assisted living communities provide licensed nursing services; hours vary between communities. Social activities and scheduled transportation are also available in most communities. A special unit for residents with Alzheimer’s disease or moderate memory loss is available in some, but not all, communities. Assisted Living promotes independence and dignity for each resident and encourages the involvement of a resident’s family and friends.
At Pathway’s Supportive Living communities, our license as “supportive living” is similar to that of “assisted living” with the added peace of mind that should financial assistance become necessary at some point, it may be available for those who qualify. At this time, Pathway’s Supportive Living communities do not provide a memory care residence.
