			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Assisted Living Concepts is designed for residents to be a true home for seniors to meet their requirements in a relaxed atmosphere.  The individuals require some assistance with daily living, such as eating, bathing, dressing, companionship, medication monitoring and management.</p>
<p>The combination of housing and services is an affordable alternative that encourages independence for older adults who do not require 24-hour continuous skilled nursing care.<br />
Residents are treated with respect and dignity, which fosters good self-esteem in a home-like setting.</p>
<p>Individual lifestyles and needs are considered 24 hours a day:</p>
<ul>
<li> Assisted Living</li>
<li> Dementia and Alzheimer&#8217;s Care</li>
<li> Respite Care</li>
<li> Social preferences (eg, active or relaxing)</li>
<li> Security</li>
<li> Well being</li>
<li>For seniors who required Assisted Living or for those who can live most of the time independently, some of the services provided are:</li>
<li> Private apartments</li>
<li> Meals supervised by a dietician</li>
<li> Health and wellness programs</li>
<li> Social, education, and cultural activities</li>
<li> Services are the same as assisted living facilities and centers &#8211; medication, bathing, dressing, mobility, personal hygiene, transferring, incontinence, health care coordination, housekeeping and laundry.</li>
<li> Emergency call system.</li>
</ul>
<p>The key to Assisted Living Concepts is the feeling that you know you are home!</p>

<ul>
<li> Health care management and monitoring</li>
<li> Assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, using the bathroom, preparation of meals, and eating</li>
<li> Housekeeping and laundry</li>
<li> Medication reminders and/or help with medications</li>
<li> Recreational activities</li>
<li> Companionship</li>
<li> Security</li>
