What Type of Senior Living Program Does My Parent Need?
Choosing a senior living program doesn’t have to feel impossible. As long as you ask yourself the right questions, you’ll be able to determine which senior living program is ideal for your parent.
Keep in mind that your parent’s needs may change over time. Luckily, we make it easy at Westminster Place to adjust care as necessary. To determine the care that your parent can benefit from right now, try asking yourself a few key questions.
Is Your Parent Still Independent?
Is your parent still able to perform daily hygiene and upkeep tasks? Are they able to walk and move freely? Do they live alone without any caregivers or family members?
In this case, your parent could benefit from independent living at Westminster Place. There, they can enjoy their independence, take part in their favorite activities, and easily socialize with friends and neighbors.
How Is Their Cognitive Health?
If your parent is facing challenges with their cognitive health, it’s time to consider memory care with skilled professionals like those at Westminster Place. Some common signs of cognitive decline include:
- Confusion
- Forgetfulness
- Mood swings
- Fatigue
Even though choosing a senior living program can be tricky, changes in cognitive ability and the development of conditions like dementia and Alzheimer’s are signs that your parent may require 24/7 care. Our memory care community is designed to support seniors at all stages of cognitive decline.
Are You Their Full-Time Caregiver?
Did you know that even full-time family caregivers can enjoy the benefits of senior living programs? Respite programs are designed to provide support to caregivers who need to take time away.
Whether you need to travel for work or simply relax for your own mental and physical health, our respite care at Westminster Place will provide your loved one with high-quality care so that you can be stress-free.
Did They Experience a Serious Injury?
Perhaps your parent experienced an injury that significantly decreased their mobility. No matter your parent’s previous level of independence, such an injury can make long-term care services necessary and extremely helpful.
Our long-term senior living program at Westminster Place offers scalable medical care and support to residents who have decreased mobility due to injury, illness, and other factors.
Is Home Maintenance Too Stressful?
In some cases, the only reason why your parent no longer wants to live at home is the cost and responsibility of maintaining their home. Even if your parent is fully independent, the upkeep and expenses associated with homeownership can become overwhelming.
Independent living at Westminster Place makes it possible for independent seniors to enjoy their golden years free of the responsibility of home maintenance. This way, their retirement can be spent exactly how they want it.
