Free guides on senior living
- Share via
Aging Americans seeking independence, choice and control over their lives in assisted-living facilities can get help from a free set of resource guides aimed at helping them and their caretakers meet those goals.
Recent studies by the Long Term Care Community Coalition and the Coalition of Institutionalized Aged and Disabled revealed that competing needs of residents, their children, managers and other staff make it difficult to create the lifestyle many assisted-living residents desire.
The four guides written by the coalitions try to enhance the residents’ experiences by aiding discussions between them and the assisted-living staff, and offering solutions that will help residents achieve independence. The guides are available at www.assisted-living411.org.
