Assisted Living Care Case Study

a. Rationale: Nearly one million senior citizens of the Untied States are assisted by assisted living facilities, and the state or charitable institutions provide support for eldercares. Elders who live in the assisted living facilities are allowed to maintain a sense of independence. Facilities provided are personalized, resident centered care to meet individual preferences and needs. Assisted living treats all residents with dignity, provides privacy and encourages independence and freedom of choice. Although some resident’s family members and friends get involved in helping and supporting the assisted living community, most of the elders in the United States do not get the care from the family members because eldercare is regarded as burden
by family members who are busy with living their own lives
