Beehive Home Assisted Living Facility

Abstract: 7 pages in length. For the most part, senior citizens are independent people who strive to maintain their independence in the face of physical and mental adversity; even after their spouses pass away, many continue to remain self-sufficient despite having ailing bodies and minds. When these conditions become too challenging - and even dangerous - for the seniors to undertake on their own, where attending to even the basics of daily life is progressively more difficult, the next step is often an assisted living facility. A common misconception about assisted living facilities is that they are one and the same with state-run nursing homes, however, unlike nursing homes - which are nothing more than warehouses for the infirmed aged - assisted living facilities serve as a conduit between the individual's limitations and maintaining an independent lifestyle. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
