Assisted Living: More Independence Than You Think

“No man is an Island, entire of it self; every man is a piece of the Continent, a part of the main.”
- John Donne, English poet 1624
This famous phrase from a John Donne poem is today used as a proverb about the importance of community and interdependence. Everyone needs a helping hand at one time or another, and it’s that occasional support that can help us live a larger life then we’d be able to on our own.
The same is true for assisted living. It provides just the right about of support to help us maintain and even maximize our independence. But many older adults think assisted living means giving up their freedom. Here’s how assisted living at Lake Seminole Square can allow you to do more than you may have thought possible.
Assisted Living Is Support with Daily Tasks
How much time and energy do you put into doing everyday tasks like cooking and cleaning? How often do you not do something because it takes too much energy to “get ready?” Assisted living communities are uniquely equipped to help with the activities of daily living, including:
- Medication management
- Grooming and dressing
- Housekeeping and laundry
- Scheduling medical appointments
Even if you don’t know what services you need, we’ll work with you to create a personalized care plan that fits your specific needs.
Benefits of Assisted Living
Some of the notable benefits of our assisted living community include:
- Customized care assessments: You’ll never receive more support or care than you want or need. We’ll conduct an initial and ongoing customized care assessment, so we can support you or your loved one with dignity and in a way that works for you.
- Housekeeping services: Our weekly housekeeping and linen services and personal concierge services allows you to focus more on the things that matter most.
