1. Are you overscheduled, anxious, and stretched too thin? A former resident said, "My son's a doctor and he wanted me to move out of that big assisted living because he wanted me cared for by a real nurse, and he could travel knowing I am well cared for."
2. Exhausted by emergency calls for help or trips to the emergency room? Enjoy your life knowing your loved one is being cared for by a registered nurse with a specialty in geriatrics, with 30 years of experience, instead of a minimally trained and unlicensed caregiver. A former family says, "I am filled with gratitude and 'Joy' that his last days were filled with such love, respect and grace."
3. Worried about what to do when your loved one's caregiver is sick or does not show up? Your loved one will be living in Nurse Karen's home, cared for by our family. Consistent care without the turmoil of continual staff turnover found at big assisted livings.
4. Is your loved one lonely or isolated? "My Mother is so much healthier and happier living with them. They eat homemade meals together, take her to doctors appointments and Bible study and a variety of other things she enjoys." Poodles, live piano concerts, craft projects, puzzles, games, walks outside, and holiday parties are just some of the activities.
6. Are you concerned that your loved one is needing better care? With only 3 residents we have time to care for your loved one's needs (large facilities have 1 caregiver to 12-20 residents). Calls for assistance are answered in less than 2 minutes usually, unlike the 30+ minutes at large facilities. The very friendly family atmosphere, excellent nursing care, great food, and bright and positive living conditions helped make my uncle's time at Abiding Joy some of the happiest days of his life..."
9. Confused about healthcare needs and what the doctor meant at the last appointment, or what their condition means for the future? Nurse Karen will serve as your loved one's personal guide. Making sense of the complicated world of senior healthcare. The family of a former resident says, "Thank you for always being honest with us about where he was and what the future might look like. It made the final days easier to understand. You truly were angels to us."
