What ways make the transition easier?

Life in an assisted living facility is an undeniable adjustment. You will be getting use to a new environment and meeting new people. There are things you can do to make the transition easier. Allow plenty of time to pack and make decisions about what you want to take to your new home. Do your homework on the facility. Ask about mealtimes, activity schedules and how the daily routines go each day. Get out of your room as often as possible to meet everyone and get a “feel” for the things you enjoy doing. Most importantly, go easy on yourself. Adjustments take time so use the time to ask questions, questions, questions! Our residents and staff are always happy for conversation and will enjoy helping you get acclimated.
