Affordable Senior Living Tips

December 13, 2022
Individualized senior living

The rising demand for affordable senior living isn’t entirely surprising. After all, the number of Americans aged 65 and older is projected to almost double by the year 2060. With all the myths surrounding old age homes, retirement communities, and assisted living, people often hesitate to seek living assistance as they age. 

Through these senior living tips, we aim to introduce the elderly to the idea of seeking help in active and affordable facilities. 

Understand That Staying At Home Is Not Always Affordable

Most families do not fully understand that keeping older loved ones at home is pricier than if they are in a senior living facility. They keep disregarding many expenses, such as utilities, housekeeping, home repairs, entertainment, and meals. However, in many affordable senior living facilities, the cost is usually all-inclusive of the stated needs. 

Opt for Shared Senior Living Facilities

The best way to save on costs is by opting for shared accommodation. However, this isn’t all there is to it. Shared accommodation, such as that provided at American Grand, can also help residents ease into the transition. 

The more they get to know others, the more hobbies, outings, and entertainment activities they can share. Hence, the better the chances of saving up on monthly and annual expenses while battling loneliness in a healthy manner. 

Set Realistic And Small Goals

There is a bunch of opportunities available in senior living facilities that can easily overwhelm the residents. From entertainment to fitness, the number of options may seem enticing, but as a senior, you want to establish smaller and more realistic goals so you can save up while making the most out of your time there. 

Start by establishing daily, weekly and monthly goals to keep yourself hooked to a consistent routine. Try a new hobby or simply meet a new neighbor. Take small but steady steps so you can adjust to the new settings in no time. 

Affordable senior living is all about finding the right facility and making the best use of all available amenities. 

Is Individualized Senior Living the Right Option For You?

When people think of senior living, they often think of facilities with zero privacy and community-based living. While community-style living helps battle loneliness, we understand that not all elderly people have the same needs. 

Hence, our home-like setting has both private and friendship suites to help the elderly ease into the transition. Each elderly person’s unique lifestyle and requirements are taken into account to help them adjust better.

For starters, all bathrooms are separated by pocket doors, so the facilities are in full view of the residents. Furthermore, personal care, such as bathing, dressing, administering medication, etc., is also attended to in a private suite.

Looking For the Right Facility for the Elderly In Your House?

If you’re seeking assisted living for an elderly in your house, don’t look any further. At American Grand, we understand that not all old people can be molded into a single way of living. Hence, through our personalized care, special activities, and various other amenities, we ensure that each person gets access to the best of all facilities. Contact us at American Grand today for more information.
