What is Long-Term Care?
Are you or your loved one ready for long-term care? When it comes to deciding if it is time to consider long-term care, it is best to understand what it is. The purpose of long-term assisted living is to help meet the needs of people with chronic illnesses or disabilities who are no longer able to care for themselves for long periods of time. Signs that one may need to consider assisted living could be an increasing need for help with everyday activities, having a hard time maintaining regular bathing and hygiene, frequent falls, failing to follow medication doses and schedules, and similar declines in personal care. When you or a loved one reach this point in life it can be a difficult and emotional transition, but Cornerstone Gardens is here to help make the process as smooth as possible and offer the best medical and non-medical care.
