For a family, making the decision to move a\nloved one into an assisted living facility can be full of ups and downs\u2026 for\neveryone. Let\u2019s discuss the subject in detail so you can have more ups than the\nlatter. There are many aspects you must examine, and ensure that you don\u2019t make\nany of these common assisted living mistakes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.\u00a0 Rushing the decision<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is understandable that your family can be\nquite stressed and worried about the need to get your elderly loved ones into\nan assisted living home. You may not have the time and energy reserves to\nmanage the situation on your own. But remember not to make a rushed decision.\nThoroughly research your available options in terms of proximity, aesthetics,\nactivities, dietary choices, quality of care facilities provided and the\nresident to caregiver ratio. Keep in mind that should you or your parent be\nunhappy with the facility, there will be other challenges and difficulties for\nyou to deal with. The decision you make now will have far reaching positive\neffects, so just breathe… remember thousands of families are right where you\nare right now.  Take your time so you can\nmake the right choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. \u00a0 Getting carried away by aesthetics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pleasant surroundings are important; we all\nfeel a sense of importance when in a perfectly decorated and updated home. But\ndecor shouldn\u2019t be the sole deciding criterion. A new, fancy place with\nlandscaped gardens and lovely furniture may feel emotionally attractive.\nHowever, an older but well looked after home may indicate personal attention,\ngreater experience of caring for the elderly, and seasoned and dedicated staff.\nA house that is modified for senior living, with ramps, surgical beds,\nelder-friendly bathrooms, is more important than the most on trend decor. You\nwill want a place that is clean and efficient. Great decor is an added benefit\nbut not a dealmaker.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.\u00a0 Making proximity the only criterion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s an emotional time and you will inevitably think to yourself, \u201chow far is the commute from my driveway to theirs?\u201d While being close by is important, there are other factors that are far more important. And there are more ways to look at a commute. So don\u2019t make the mistake of making a hasty decision based only on the proximity of the house to where you live in Dallas. Also take into account the distance of the home from your place of work, your children\u2019s school or sports activities. Is there a favorite ice-cream shop your kids love on the way that you can always go to? This will tie the visits to grandma with a simple pleasure in life. Can you move a weekend activity, like hiking or minigolf for the family, to one closer to your mom\u2019s new home? When you think about it, this \u201ccommute thing\u201d is also an opportunity for you to begin new traditions with your family. So, while you must pay attention to driveability, it\u2019s more flexible than you think. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.\u00a0 Not doing your due diligence<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out places online. Shortlist the best\nones and examine them further. Do a background check of the people who run the\nplace. Here are some questions to ask: How long have they been in the business?\nWhat are their credentials? How many people do they have on their payroll? Who\nare the carers employed there? Are they trained and certified? Do they have\nnursing experience? Do they have a few people to do some of the inevitable\nheavy lifting? Good reviews online? Menu options mom or dad like? See what\npeople are saying about the facility on social media and on websites such as\nYelp. It may be reassuring to know that out of the 1.5 million full-time\nnursing and care giving employees in the country, over 21% are employed in\nassisted living facilities. If possible, also speak to some of the residents\nprivately or the people who have their family members in care. Ask them about\ntheir views and experiences. Try to physically visit as many assisted living\nplaces as possible. Check the level of upkeep and whether the residents seem to\nbe generally happy and well looked after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.\u00a0 Not making a future-friendly decision<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your dad may enjoy playing tennis now, but as\nhe gets older, he may not be able to play the game he enjoys. You mom may enjoy\ngardening today, but as she becomes more immobile with her advancing years,\nthis may become irrelevant to her. Swanky homes with sophisticated recreational\nfacilities may seem attractive now but are they practical for the future? For\nsome they are, for others this is not relevant. Choose the right one for you.\nDoes it make more sense to choose a place that is small and intimate and\npersonalized vis-\u00e0-vis something that appears to be more corporatized? Are your\nparents social, playful, or would they love a big quiet reading room? Just\nremember to make a home choice that will take care of your loved ones not just\nnow but in years to come as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

6.\u00a0 Not paying attention to the details<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read the fine print. If there are things you\ndon\u2019t understand, run those terms by a lawyer. What is included and what is\nexcluded in the amount that you pay \u2013 medications, food, toiletries, laundry,\nand other consumables? Is there a year on year increase and do you need to\nrenew a contract every year? What is the protocol in case of a medical\nemergency? What happens as the elderly person becomes progressively more\ndependent and infirm or if they deteriorate mentally? Is the facility equipped\nto handle this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7.\u00a0 Not involving mom and dad<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember it isn\u2019t you who will be shifting to\na new home and having to adjust to a new life with new people. So don\u2019t take a\nunilateral decision without giving due consideration to the concerns and\npreferences that you parent or other elderly relative may have. Your parent’s\nwishes are very important to consider, so involve them in the decision making process.\nTake them on visits after you have done your initial inspection. Introduce them\nto residents you\u2019ve already spoken to and thought they might befriend. Remember\nwhen your mom or dad took you to college orientation? Remember how out of your\nelement you were and just walking the campus was exciting and scary all at\nonce. It\u2019s your turn now, to walk them through the decision step by step, hand\nin hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

8.\u00a0 Leaving it until it\u2019s too late<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a decision that you need to make so don\u2019t procrastinate. You may not like the idea of having a loved one in care but you have to be realistic. If your loved ones are becoming more immobile while living in a remote location, far from medical facilities in a home ill-equipped for elder living, it makes sense for them to move somewhere they would be safer and well supervised. Take the decision before there is a fall or a tragic incident that could have been avoided. While it is important not to rush the decision, it is also important not to leave it until it\u2019s too late!
