A Wealth of Assistance Services Are Available for Seniors

If you (or a loved one) will soon be entering your “golden years”, it is important to have a plan for the future. An effective plan requires being knowledgeable about all the assistance services that are available for seniors. Understanding your options will help you make the best decisions possible for your retirement years.

Home Health Care helps seniors age in place, but for many, this isn’t a viable option. Independent Senior Living allows you to forget the worries associated with home ownership and frees you up so you can focus on your personal passions.

Assisted Living provides social opportunities, planned excursions, and on-site services that allow you to remain active but still have your personal and health care needs met. For seniors with Alzheimer’s Disease or another form of dementia, Memory Care Assisted Living provides safety features like controlled entrances and individually tailored personal care services.

Short-term Rehabilitation is available for people recovering from surgery, an injury, or an illness. Many senior care facilities provide treatment protocols, therapy, and skilled care to help patients with positive care transitions. Physical, occupational, and speech therapies are available for in-patient and out-patient services.

Long-term and Skilled Nursing Care is also available for seniors with advanced health care needs. Physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and a chaplain frequently work together to provide high-quality clinical and personal care services, including I.V. therapies, acute and chronic wound care, lab testing, and more.

Hospice Care offers pain management, comfort assistance, and spiritual care for seniors near the end of their life journey.

Newton Village provides a wealth of amenities, services, and living options for seniors. With a continuum of senior care all in one location, residents and patients receive the care they need for the opportunity to live their best life.
