Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with activities of daily living. An assisted living facility may be a good choice if you need more personal care services than are feasible at home or in an independent living retirement community. Independent living is a general name for any housing arrangement designed exclusively for seniors. A nursing home is a place of residence for people who require constant nursing care and have significant deficiencies with activities of daily living. More than two-thirds of the states use the licensure term assisted living. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. A nursing home is a place of residence for people who require constant nursing care and have significant deficiencies with activities of daily living. Assisted Living communities are regulated and licensed at the US state level. Assisted living is a philosophy of care and services promoting independence and dignity. Assistance may include the administration or supervision of medication, or personal care services provided by a trained staff person. The housing is friendlier to older adults, more compact, with easier navigation and assistance in outside maintenance. Retirement villages and retirement communities, unlike retirement homes, offer separate and autonomous homes for residents. Generally, retirement homes are designed for seniors who need minimal to moderate support with their daily living activities. Assisted living comes by many names, such as residential care, board and care, or group homes.
