Program Description

Event Details

This presentation will explain the differences between Skilled Nursing Homes, Independent and Assisted Living Communities, Continuing Care Retirement Communities, and Memory Care Communities. It will then focus specifically on Assisted Living and Memory Care Communities and explain how these communities can differ in care and amenities. We will provide information regarding questions that families should ask and things to look for in an Assisted Living or Memory Care Community.

We will also provide information on how and when to start a conversation with your family member about transitioning to an assisted living or memory care community.

Lastly, we will discuss the cost of Assisted Living versus the cost of remaining in the home. We will explain different ways to pay for care in the home and ways to help cover the cost of Memory Care or Assisted Living.

The services of a NSIL Senior Living Advisor are typically free for seniors and their families. NSIL is compensated by the senior living communities when a client moves into one of their recommended senior living facilities.
