Are You Considering a Move to a Senior Living Community?

There comes a time in the lives of many senior citizens when they feel a need for a more carefree, comfortable retirement without all the responsibilities that come with home ownership. If you are looking for senior living, your next question may be what community is right for me.

As some of your decisions will be based on personal needs, it is important to know senior living communities offer a range of options including assisted living and memory care. Independent living is designed for active seniors who love the idea of predictable budgeting, built-in companionship and restaurant-style dining as well as wellness programs and activities. Moreover, as a resident, if your health needs change and you require daily senior care, you are already familiar with all that senior living offers. 

Assisted living is tailored to those seniors who wish to receive the daily care services they need to maintain their independence. They too flourish with vibrant programs and a supportive social community that allows them to comfortably and safely age in place.

For families with a loved one suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, there is often a time when the person’s needs outpace the care family members can provide at home. If this is your family, you will want a community that offers a distinct memory care unit and a team of experienced caregivers.

Community Living is a Popular Choice for Older Adults

As the population ages, 55+ independent living communities have become a popular option for seniors around the country.  The appeal includes making their lives easier by moving into a maintenance free apartment that meets their needs without giving up their independence.  Today’s communities’ offers older adults security and safety as well as peace of mind knowing others are always around.  

Independent living Pasadena is a place where similarly aged people in a similar time of life comfortably live among one another.  Moreover, such communities solve a growing problem reported by many seniors, that of loneliness.  As we grow older our social circle gets smaller as many older adults have retired from jobs that created opportunities for day-to-day contact with acquaintances and business associates.  In addition, some seniors no longer feel comfortable driving, which in turn, can limit their ability to socialize.  Study after study has shown that isolation becomes a bigger problem as we age and can lead to severe loneliness and even depression.  On the other hand, independent living Pasadena naturally promotes new friendships and regular socialization. 

At MorningStar of Pasadena, we offer stylish senior apartments that allow you to fully enjoy your retirement years stress free.  Floor plans include studio, one-bedroom or two-bedroom configurations and feature kitchenettes, handicapped-accessible bathrooms and emergency call systems.  Our staff handles all the maintenance and housekeeping is included.  And in case you were wondering, MorningStar is pet friendly!
