According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 20% of Americans will be 65 or older by 2030. Old age is a delicate period; older adults require comfort and care to lead healthy lives. It is beneficial to consider their preference and individual needs. Deciding on what kind of care your elderly loved one needs can be a difficult and overwhelming task.

For this reason, the Assisted Living Research Institute developed a resource to help seniors and their families explore the options available to them. They outlined every alternative to help them decide the best one, so they can continue living a well-rounded life. You can view the guide here: https://www.assistedliving.org/senior-housing/.
