I Know the basic law and services which are generally provided by any senior assisted living home like skilled nursing, physical, occupational and speech-language therapy, home health aide services, and medical social services to community wellness and adult day health programs. But is it enough or not? --------------------------------------------------- Assisted Living Facilities Chicago

Being a senior is confusing and scary. Those who are financially secure and physically fit, want fun, activities and friends. Not so secure but in pretty good shape; they want the feeling of security, less responsibility for upkeep of the facility, but still keep somewhat independent. Older with some health concerns; they want the secure feeling of knowing that if needed, help is close by; anything from tying their shoes to helping them get out of bed, making meals etc.

You're better off going with a franchise. They will provide you with the operational guidance, the marketing support, and a very precise set of instructions on how to ensure success. In fact... http://www.alwaysthereinc.com is beginning to franchise. It's pretty affordable. Their number is (205)-824-0224.:bowingpur

Assisted living facility is a place where elderly can go when they are no longer able to cook, bathe and take care of themselves living at home. It can be a private home that has a few senior citizens living with them or it can be a large facility with lots of seniors.
