One thing is true: throughout our lives, our needs change. At various times, we may require more (or less) support.
There are times when we are independent and can prepare our own meals and shop for ourselves. Then other times, perhaps after a fall or injury, we might need short-term rehabilitation support for a few weeks or months as we heal. At other times, we might require round-the-clock nursing care.
We do our best to stay well, but we truly can never predict our health and what the future holds.
Given how much our health changes over time, a “one size fits all” approach to Assisted Living generally doesn’t work.
For example, if you choose a facility that only offers one type of care, you will find yourself scrambling as your needs change.
It is jarring and disorienting, requiring you to make a transition during an already difficult period.
Finding an assisted living facility with a well-developed continuum of care ensures that you are supported no matter what. Continuum of care just means that the facility is set up to handle a wide variety of needs.
When you choose a facility with a variety of services, all you have to focus on is your health and well-being….the transitions are seamless, no matter how your situation may change over time.
By choosing an Assisted Living facility with a well-developed Continuum of Care, you’ll ensure that you are “covered” no matter what life brings. No more scrambling, guesswork, or confusion at an already difficult time. Just peace of mind that you will be well taken care of…no matter what the future brings.
At Chatham Place at Mary Wade, we ensure that you remain as independent as possible while receiving the assurance of thoughtful, caring, and seamless support.
