How and why is Assisted living becoming the best
and a safe place for seniors to choose in
the current pandemic
situation
?
Never did we know that a pandemic of such
nature would hit us making us sit in our homes.
We all knew how it was difficult for all of us
in this situation, but let us spare a minute to
think of our seniors. Yes, they are the ones who
get hit the highest when such a thing happens
and more serious is the case when they live
alone. All of their day-to-day activities from
food to medical care - everything would have
been stuck at some point. What if there was
someone who could take care of your senior's
day-to-day activities even though you are not
with them and staying abroad for your job? Give
them the proper clinical care they need with a
home-like feel eradicating the common loneliness
that haunts in old age ?
These are the questions that lead you to check
for a Senior Living facility. What if it is an
assisted living? Yes, things become much easier.
Even clinical care can be adhered to in such a
place. That's where assisted living facilities
go multiple steps ahead of the old age homes.
Even when our own homes had become a place of
uncertainties where safety from Covid-19 was a
question, Assisted living homes have ensured
safety and wellness of the elders with utmost
care. They have also ensured access to proper
nutritious food, medicine and medical equipment
if needed for seniors at proper times.

It's not just the physical health they take care
of but also the mental health of the residents
at their facilities. In an Assisted living,
people live an independent life but as a
community which helps them in gelling with other
seniors who stay there, eradicating the
loneliness and rejuvenating the senior hood with
positivity and happiness. More than assistance
in regular day-to-day living activities for
seniors, assisted living facilities are
completely equipped to provide different types of
care based on the need of the elders. It also
applies to the support the senior needs in
managing their medical/clinical condition and
overall health. Covering each and every aspect of
an elder's life with care and compassion, the
assisted living facilities offer a holistic
living experience which helps the seniors live a
comfortable, happy and dignified life by
experiencing each moment of their life better.
FACTS
There are currently over 5 million senior
citizens who are active in the workforce. That
means that 5 million older people are still
sharing their skills and expertise to help make
the world and their industry a better place.

How is home health care, the need of the day
after the Pandemic
?
Home health care provides people with the
means to stay healthy in their own homes,
clearing up space in hospitals which is an
implication to fight against Covid-19. Due to
the social distancing measures, important
challenges to the health and well being of the
very old, frail or who have multiple chronic
conditions were at high risk of morbidity and
mortality and this led to the significant need
for home healthcare which has resulted in rise
of patients who are being treated in the home
after the Covid-19 pandemic. The important
aspect of it is the provision of comfort and
companionship which the patients enjoy, that has
made it a need of the day.
At times even when at a hospital for regular
checkup we tend to feel uncomfortable and
sometimes it becomes a himalayan task to go out
of our house to a hospital or clinic due to
various reasons. So there are a variety of
reasons why home healthcare is chosen over the
conventional way of clinic or hospital setup. It
is, on a large scale, advantageous for the older
people as they are the ones who have mobility
issues on a large scale. Home health care is
becoming i m p o r t a n t , a s h o s p i t a
l s a r e managing tightly with many issues
like bed capacity, staff management and the
health issues they are treating.

Some of the advantages of choosing home
healthcare over the conventional method are
Enabling faster and quick recovery Healing at
your own home
With more personalized care and trust Sense of
companionship for elders
Also, compared to a hospital stay,
transportation, and other miscellaneous expenses,
Home healthcare is a more relaxed, refined, and
pocket-friendly option for your loved ones
providing complete medical support with
individual attention round-the-clock eliminating
long waiting times at hospitals and clinics. Thus
the evolution of the world and the need of
situations has made home healthcare not only a
necessity but also a comfortable choice to make
for seniors after this Covid-19 pandemic.
FACTS
Your creative capacity doesn't shrivel away in
the slightest. Take the German philosophers
Immanuel Kant for example He published what are
arguably some of his greatest works between ages
60 and 80.
