Moving to a senior living community is an exciting time, with opportunities for friendship, social connection, and fun activities. However, it can also be stressful for many seniors. A lifestyle change in itself is already overwhelming, and understanding the different terminology that comes with making decisions around your move can cause added stress when navigating this process.You may feel overwhelmed by the change in lifestyle or confused about the different terminology used in senior living communities.
If you’re feeling anxious about making the move, remember that your feelings are a valid and normal part of this transition. We’re here to help guide you through this so you can enjoy all the positives senior living has to offer. Here are our 6 favourite benefits to moving to Trico LivingWell’s senior living community.
1. Community & Support
One of the best parts of assisted and independent living for seniors is the support you’ll receive from the residents and staff of your new community. Whether you’re enjoying a meal together, participating in an activity, or just sitting down to tea and conversation, there are plenty of opportunities to create meaningful connections with those around you.
2. Care & Safety
Many senior residences offer care services for those in assisted living and memory care programs. This can include support with daily tasks, specialized dementia care, and help with things like mobility and medications. At Trico LivingWell, you can also rest assured knowing that our culinary team provides delicious meals that are healthy, balanced, and catered to suit your dietary needs.
3. Stability & Structure
It can be difficult to know what to expect when moving from your own home to a senior living community, but often, seniors take comfort in their new routine after they’ve arrived. Scheduled mealtimes and activities, as well as regular check-ins from staff, can help make the transition to senior living much easier.
4. Health & Wellness
We all know how important regular physical activity is for our health. In a senior living community, you’ll benefit from guided fitness classes that can help to improve your strength and mobility. Best of all, these classes are fun to participate in. There are also many opportunities for social and learning opportunities each day, ranging from dance lessons to chess to movie nights.
5. Pet Friendly
Trico LivingWell is a pet-friendly senior living community, which means your furry friends can join you on your new journey. Pets offer numerous benefits, including companionship, reduced anxiety, and opportunities for exercise and play.
Disclaimer: When searching for the right senior living community, be sure to inquire about pet policies to ensure the health, safety, and comfort of everyone involved.
6. Peace of Mind
When you make the move to a senior living community, you can sleep soundly knowing that there is flexibility in your care and everything you need to have taken care of can be. Whether you’re looking for an inclusive living arrangement to provide help with home maintenance and daily tasks like cooking, cleaning, laundry, and grocery shopping, or an independent living situation that allows you to live life your way, the possibilities are endless!
