Finding the Right Assisted Living Facility in Rock Hill: Where Should You Start?


In Rock Hill and the surrounding area, there are numerous assisted living facilities that cater to the needs of their residents. Although they each offer the same basic services, such as assistance with activities of daily living, meal preparation, and transportation, they may vary in terms of the lifestyle that they provide to their seniors. For this reason, the elder care professionals at Always Best Care of Rock Hill, serving York, Lancaster, and Chester Counties, including the communities Rock Hill, Tega Cay, Fort Mill, Lake Wylie, and Indian Land, as well as York, Clover, Hickory Grove, and McConnells, encourage you and your senior to carefully consider the options before you when determining which community is best.
Always Best Care offers a complimentary placement service for elderly individuals. This means that they match seniors with the facilities that will best suit their needs and cater to their desired social and community involvement. Here are the steps to take when working with Always Best Care to determine the right placement for your loved one.
1.     Talk to your senior's doctor to confirm that an assisted living facility is the right choice, as opposed to home care or nursing services.
2.     Contact your local Always Best Care organization to speak to a senior care professional regarding your loved one's needs. After providing the necessary information, the Always Best Care representative will use the details you and your senior provide to match your elderly loved one's needs with several local assisted living facilities.
3.     Consider each of the facilities and ask your senior which they are interested in visiting. Let them know that the assisted living placement services come with no obligation, so there is no pressure for them to choose. Talk through each of the options and set up appointments to see the highest contenders in person.
4.     While visiting each facility, take notes regarding the cleanliness, friendliness, and other details of the community. Ask about social events, outings, and other factors that are important to your senior.
5.     After visiting all of the possible facilities, talk with your elderly loved one to determine which they liked the best and which they were not impressed by. If they are ready to commit to one of the communities, go ahead and make the calls necessary to secure their spot.
