At New Perspective we offer independent living, assisted living, and memory care. We offer top-tier memory care, including dementia care, in our high-grade memory care facilities. The senior living options range from as independent as having your own senior citizen apartment to getting around the clock assisted living care. In between those options we offer traditional retirement homes, senior housing, and senior communities. For more information on the differences between independent living, assisted living, and memory care, read our blog, “Senior Living Straight-Up”.

Having the “senior living” conversation can be difficult. You must remember that your aging loved one can feel as though they are giving up their independence by moving into a senior living community. The important thing to do here is to sit with them and allow them to voice their concerns. It’s important to ensure they feel heard.

Let them know that they won’t be losing their freedom – in fact, many of our residents feel as though they’ve gained more freedom after moving into our communities. We help take care of the day-to-day tasks like laundry, taking out the trash, cooking meals, which frees up your loved one to do more of the activities they want to do.

At New Perspective, we understand that having a choice is important to ensuring independence. Our residents can choose from a variety of daily activities to keep them active, food offerings at each meal, and more, so they choose how to spend their days at our communities.
