Why Assisted Living in Jacksonville is Better than a Nursing Home
Choosing the appropriate level of care is key when finding the right nursing home or assisted living in Jacksonville. But Benton House is here to help, while both nursing homes and assisted living communities provide vital services to the nation’s seniors, it is important to understand the differences.
One main difference between a nursing home and an assisted living community is the type of experience. A nursing home is focused on a medical approach, where residents need continuing advanced treatments and access to medical staff is critical. While assisted living is based on a social model and maintains a high degree of independence and choice.
