Just
as MorningStar at Golden Ridge encourages anyone interested in our new
community’s assisted living option to schedule a visit, so do most other senior
living communities. This is because you cannot
really get an idea of what a community looks like or feels like without seeing
it in person.
In
addition to wanting you or your loved one to be happy with the choice, your
priorities
most likely include finding a community that is well run, clean, and within
your price range. Experts recommend
your first step should be to do some research over the Internet and on the
phone. Narrowing down your choices
includes considering things such as how convenient will it be for the family to
visit and is it located close to a pharmacy, medical facilities and shopping. Furthermore, find out if the community is accepting
new residents, and if not, you may want to go on their waiting list.
Senior
support networks like Caring.com has a great checklist (it is even printable) of
tips to consider when touring an assisted living community. To start with, they say you should always
listen to your gut instincts. From the
moment you walk through the door, do you get a good feeling? Regardless of how beautifully decorated, does
it feel welcoming and have a home-like atmosphere? If they offer the service, eat lunch with the
residents as it will help to give you a more complete picture of the
community.
MorningStar
at Golden Ridge encourages families to schedule a visit as
we are proud of each and every aspect of our community. Not only is our community beautifully
decorated and designed for residents’ every comfort and need,
but we have a staff that is committed to serving seniors and come to work each
