An assisted living facility is a residential program for individuals who need help with daily activities, such as personal care, mobility, medications, meal preparation for household chores, but who do not require skilled nursing care. Assisted living communities strive to create a home-like setting that promotes independence. Nursing homes on the other hand are designed for people who need daily nursing care. These facilities have nursing staff available 24 hours a day, and have arranged services (social work, occupational and physical therapies etc.) to meet the residents health care needs.
The cause varies from $1000 to $6000/month depending on the facilities features, size, location and the services provided
The Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) has licensed Prevail Homes Residential Assisted Living Facility for 8 bed Facility. Prevail Homes Residential Assisted Living facility has a standard license.
If your mother/father is admitted to the assisted living facility, she/he can continue to live there when her/his health declines as long as her/his care needs are not greater than the highest level of care for which the facility is licensed. If, however, their needs are greater than the facility license requirement she will likely need to move to an assisted living facility that allows higher level of care or possibly be transferred to a nursing home.
First, choose a facility that is right for your parents. Carefully read the Resident Agreement, the contract list all of the services that will be provided, the fees and the responsibilities of all parties. Make sure you understand what services are provided and all the fees that may be charged. Ask your physician to complete a physical examination form and submit it to the assisted living facility you have chosen. Make sure the facility is licensed for the level of care your parents need. Once the steps are taken and all the documents are signed and any initial fees are paid, your parents may move and when there is a vacancy.
