An assisted living facility provides accessible living spaces for seniors, offering medical support as needed. Rebekah Health Links provides a welcoming facility with trained nurses and support staff. Here is more information about understanding the role of assisted living in supporting independence:
Personalized Support
An assisted living facility supports residents in an independent lifestyle by offering personalized assistance according to medical or physical needs. This includes managing medication and helping with daily activities. Receiving occasional or daily assistance enables residents to more fully participate in favorite activities and follow their normal routines. Our assisted living facility also provides medical services such as pain management and emotional counseling.
Assistance can also be as simple as interactions or visits with friendly support staff members. Our staff is multilingual, which allows us to communicate easily with residents and offer understanding. With one-on-one care, you and your loved ones are treated as respected individuals.
Private Living Area
Having personal living space helps promote personal independence. Facilities provide private suites for residents, allowing you or a loved one to live in an apartment-like space. These spacious areas come fully furnished. The suites at Rebekah Health Links come with large picture windows for natural light, oversized closets for personal storage, and contemporary finishes for personal comfort. A fully equipped kitchenette, including a fridge, counter, and sink, provides the option of preparing one’s own meals and snacks.
Our facility offers handicap-accessible suites. This includes visible and audible fire alarms in case of emergency, and they can include private, wheelchair-accessible bathrooms. This allows residents to easily navigate their living area.
Residents are able to adapt the space according to personal preference. This includes decorating the space with art and adding personal knick-knacks or books. Personalized climate control allows residents to choose a comfortable temperature for their living space.
Modern Amenities
An assisted living facility offers opportunities and locations for social interaction and leisure activities with other residents. A recreational program allows residents to choose what activities to pursue, and the convenient location helps fulfill social needs in a communal living environment while negating the need for travel. Some benefits of communal spaces and activities include:
- Community: Having common spaces to meet and interact with other residents allows for opportunities to make friends and build a sense of community. This helps create a fulfilling lifestyle and can help prevent loneliness.
- Hobbies: Recreational activities allow our residents to participate in their favorite hobbies or learn new ones. Our program encompasses a range of activities, including fitness, art, social, and cultural pursuits.
- Leisure: The large common areas provide residents with opportunities to sit and chat with visitors. Residents can also watch their favorite teams with their friends via a sports cable package.
A modern dining room serves meals in both buffet and restaurant styles that are nutritious, aiding residents in maintaining their health. Residents can choose their companions and meet new people during dining hours. A beauty salon and barber shop enable residents to maintain their appearances and even try out new hairstyles. We also provide religious services, allowing residents to practice their faith.
