Assisted living covers a broad array of services and settings. These member residences offer help with everyday living tasks and with other supportive services, while allowing the resident to maintain autonomy, independence, and safety in a home-like setting. A hallmark of assisted living is the attitude of “we will help you take care of yourself.” While not everyone is a candidate for assisted living, these residences can offer an alternative to home care or skilled care.
