Can A Person With Dementia Live In An Assisted Living Community?

Dementia is a condition related to a decline in memory and thinking skills to a point where it can start to affect a person’s ability to perform everyday activities. There are different stages of dementia and it is important to take care of the person diagnosed with the condition.

Different types of care are provided by different facilities and it is better to ask if it will suit their needs before registering.

The most important factors that come into play at a good long-term residential facility or a retirement home or an assisted living facility are:

· A comfortable environment and homelike feeling.
· A place that offers privacy, safety, and security.
· A place where the resident is able to socialize with other residents.
· A place with experienced caregivers, who are trained in taking care of people with dementia and can address their needs.

A retirement community or a retirement facility would be the perfect place for people diagnosed with early-stage dementia as they are still capable of taking care of themselves independently.

They will be able to move about freely but might not be able to take care of the complete house or villa. In such cases, the in-house staff offer limited supervision and offer other services like housekeeping, using transportation, participating in social activities and other amenities.

Dementia Assisted Living Facility or Assisted Care is when a person is in need of external support like a full-time or part-time caregiver or a nurse. This bridges the gap between a retirement facility and a nursing home. A person with dementia can still be able to live freely, without any problems in a dementia assisted living facility.

For such people, the facility generally offers, meals, housing, healthcare, medical assistance, and support and assisted care. It is important to ask as all facilities might not have the amenities suited for people with dementia.
