Today’s Assisted Living Communities
Too many older adults do not have a true picture of what senior living is all about. They still think senior living communities are like the nursing homes their elderly relatives had been “sent to” years ago once they could no longer care for themselves, and considered them to be depressing places. Since these misconceptions are from people who have not visited one of today’s modern, vibrant communities, they do not understand that nothing could be farther from the truth.
In the case of assisted living communities, residents typically are able to lead a more independent lifestyle than many elderly adults who live alone as they have access to assistance whenever they need it. Others worry assisted living communities may be too expensive. However, the truth is that once you factor in your current living expenses (including the costs of home repairs and maintenance) as well as the additional costs of paying for a variety of care services, assisted living is a lot less expensive than you thought.
Seniors also fear an assisted living community may not offer enough to keep them feeling productive and engaged. Again nothing could be farther from the truth. At MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care at Arrowhead, we offer a whole host of resort-style amenities and services along with meaningful programs and activities. As a resident, you benefit from social interactions, physical activities geared toward your fitness level, and programs designed to stimulate your mind.
Furthermore, assisted living gives a resident’s family peace of mind knowing help is close at hand whenever it is needed. Families are also comforted by the fact their loved one is getting nutritional meals that are not only good for them but delicious tasting. MorningStar at Arrowhead invites area families to set up a tour to see why our residents are proud to call us “home.”
MorningStar at Arrowhead represents the best in senior living with a unique mission statement “to honor, to serve, to invest.” We have built our foundation on honoring God, valuing all seniors and selecting staff with a felt calling to serve…all of which contributes to creating a true home for residents amid a beautiful, serene setting.
