Making the Transition to Assisted Living Centers


Beloit Health System offers two well-respected assisted living centers in the Stateline area: NorthPointe Terrace in Roscoe and Riverside Terrace in Beloit.  The expert and caring staff at these facilities offer some good advice when seeking options in senior living.

There are many good things about getting older: You've gained extensive knowledge over the years, you have great stories to share and you've (hopefully) learned to not sweat the small stuff. There are also some big decisions as you age, including if and when to move from independent to assisted living arrangements.  

Making the transition to an assisted living center is never an easy one. If you or a loved one is struggling with everyday activities, such as bathing, getting dressed, making meals or running errands, you may want to begin exploring assisted living options in your area. Here are some tips for starting your search:
• Assess your financial, physical, and lifestyle needs, including how much care is needed and how much you can afford.
• Consider the pros and cons of different locations – proximity to home, family, shopping, parks, etc.
• Find out if there are waiting lists for assisted living facilities in your area, and determine if the timing will work for you.
• Visit as many facilities as you can with a loved one, asking lots of questions about the program and care procedures. Ask to see common areas, as well as several residents' rooms. Also ask to eat a meal with the residents, taking the time to ask them questions about what they like about the facility and what they feel could be improved.
• Ask to see a copy of the licensing or certification inspection report once you've narrowed down your search to two or three places.

An Emotional Journey:
Don't bottle up feelings of anxiety or sadness as you make decisions about living arrangements and care for yourself or a loved one. Try to be sensitive to the feelings of everyone involved and talk through any worries and fears that may arise.
If you or a loved one is worried about meeting new people, make an effort to get acquainted with residents through social activities. If there are fears about what will happen to you or your loved one's home or belongings, be sure to work through those issues together. Just remember: Family communication is the key.

Assisted Living Centers typically provides:
• Assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, bathroom breaks and transportation.
• Wellness programs, including exercise.
• Recreational activities.
• Coordination of health and medical services, including medication management.
• Three meals a day, typically served with other residents in a common area.
• Housekeeping and security services.
• Staff available 24/7.
