Living in an Assisted Living Community

Aside from the difference in the level of care, a nursing home and our assisted living community have other major differences. One big difference is the living accommodations. Within a nursing home, rooms are private or semi-private, they are smaller in size, to accommodate for possible mobility limitations, and contain the medical equipment the required for the resident’s care. Our assisted living community in Augusta offers apartments to our residents. These are spacious units, carpeted, with private restrooms, and offer several amenities. Residents are welcome to decorate and furnish and decorate as desired to truly make it home.

Living cost is another factor that differs between a nursing home and an assisted living community. Living cost for an assisted living community is generally up to half the cost of a nursing home.  This is because our residents do not have a need for the comprehensive medical staff of a nursing home. Unless there is a need for continuous medical care, a nursing home may not be necessary. Assistance with medication management and other types of assistance are still offered within our assisted living services.
