Assisted Living

Assisted living is the ideal choice for those who want to continue living the life they love, but just need a little assistance with everyday tasks like bathing, dressing and managing medicine. It’s the perfect balance of independence and specialized support and care.

What is Assisted Living?

Assisted living encourages seniors to be as independent as possible, while getting the helping hand they need with bathing, dressing, medication management and other daily living activities.

At Carespring communities, assisted living spaces are designed for safety, accessibility and mobility, with the reassurance of 24-hour monitoring and assistance delivered by a dedicated caregiving team. Each community provides a wide variety of recreational activities that help residents cultivate friendships and remain physically and mentally active — from wellness programs, movie nights, and arts and crafts classes, to planned group outings and cultural events.

Who is Assisted Living Right For?

Assisted living is a great option for seniors who:

  • Want to maintain a level of independence, while receiving basic health monitoring and support with daily living activities
  • Feel unsafe living alone — often a result of falls, missed medications or decreased mobility
  • May not have family members who can provide the support they need
  • Have been feeling isolated and are looking to build friendships and enjoy community living in a home-like setting

Assisted Living FAQs

Assisted living communities like those at Carespring provide support with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, grooming and medication management. Residents also benefit from 24/7 caregiver availability, wellness checks, housekeeping, meals and engaging social activities. Each resident receives a personalized care plan tailored to their individual needs and preferences.

Assisted living offers a balance of independence and support. Unlike nursing homes, which provide continuous medical care, assisted living focuses on non-medical personal care in a residential setting. Compared to home care, assisted living provides more opportunities for socialization, structured activities and access to on-site amenities and availability of support 24/7 from staff.

Residents live in private apartments and enjoy a community lifestyle with safety and support built in.

Costs vary based on apartment size, level of care and location. At a Carespring community, for example, rates are outlined and include monthly rent for basic services such as meals, housekeeping and activities. Care fees are established based on the individualized needs of the resident and added to the monthly apartment rent.

Medicare and private insurance don’t cover assisted living, but Medicaid may provide help for eligible individuals through programs like the Assisted Living Waiver in Ohio. Many families also use long-term care insurance.
