<strong>Between</strong> <strong>Assisted</strong> <strong>Living</strong><br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>Independent</strong> <strong>Living</strong><br />

Availability of Medical<br />

Professionals<br />

<strong>Independent</strong> living community offers a nurse or<br />

staff during weekday’s business hours only but<br />

assisted living offers registered nurse on site 24<br />

hours per day. These nurses maintain the daily<br />

activity of each <strong>and</strong> every resident. Apart from<br />

this, some assisted living offer regular doctor<br />

visit.<br />

Safety <strong>and</strong> Emergency<br />

Response<br />

<strong>Independent</strong> living communities usually have a<br />

security staff during overnight who looks after<br />

any falls or accidents. On the other h<strong>and</strong><br />

assisted living communities offer nurses,<br />

caregivers in the community every hour who are<br />

ready to help you in every situation <strong>and</strong><br />

underst<strong>and</strong> when <strong>and</strong> whom to call for better<br />

assistance.<br />

Delicious <strong>and</strong> Nutritious Meals<br />

Depending on the rent independent living offers<br />

one or two meals per day <strong>and</strong> you may need to<br />

pay an additional cost for the meal at dining<br />

room or restaurant. <strong>Assisted</strong> living community<br />

offers three meals per day without any<br />

additional costs. Meals are provided to<br />

individual residents depending on their medical<br />

conditions. Even snacks are also available<br />

throughout the day.<br />

Community Life<br />

When comparing community life between<br />

independent living <strong>and</strong> assisted living facilities,<br />

you will have more opportunities in assisted<br />

living for socialization, making new friends,<br />

experiencing new adventures <strong>and</strong> facilities. In a<br />

good assisted living community it is now nearly<br />

impossible to lead a boring life which is not the<br />

same thing for independent living facilities.<br />
