Assisted living is an excellent choice for seniors who want to live as independently as possible, but need assistance with support services. Assisted living facilities have a higher ratio of caregivers than a nursing home in a safe home-like environment, but encourage as much individual independence as capable. Assisted living facilities offer more assistance than a retirement home and more continuous monitoring than home health care. Assisted living housing comes in all shapes and sizes. Settings can range from three or more residents in a home-like setting, up to 200 residents in a larger facility designed specifically for assisted living purposes.

Assisted Living does not mean a person loses his or her independence.

Assisted living facilities offer not only a home, but also safety, security, socialization and assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, grooming, medication management, and activity therapy.
