at Sunny Days Assisted Living

It is a type of senior care that allows older adults to live independently in their own accommodation, but with 24-hour staff available to provide personal care and support services as needed. These services can include help with the activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing, eating, dressing, and taking medication. Assisted living communities also offer lifestyle services, such as meals, housekeeping, transportation, and social activities. The cost of assisted living depends on the level of care, the size and location of the accommodation, and the amenities and features of the community.

The services offered by assisted living communities vary from facility to facility. Our services include:

• Three meals a day plus snacks
• Monitoring of medication
• Personal care, including dressing and bathing
• Housekeeping and laundry
• 24-hour emergency care
• Social and recreational activities

Talk with your family and caregivers about what services are needed. Take time to consider what services are important to you before you visit assisted living communities. This step will help ease your transition. Think about these questions:

• Why do I want/need to change my living arrangements?
• What daily activities do I need help with (bathing, dressing, toileting, eating, remembering medications)?
• How often do I need help?
