ABOUT US

Within the last few years, our family has had to clear out a beloved uncle's large estate and most recently, we had to downsize our mother from the family home to independent living. While going through these events, we realized there are very few resources that services these needs from beginning to end. We want to fill this void.

Our 35+ years of executive logistics experience coupled with our personal experiences and Faith makes SCOR uniquely qualified to assist during these stressful times.

Moving into assisted living is a significant transition for seniors and their families. It often comes with a mix of emotions, including relief, anxiety, and sometimes sadness. Here are some key points to consider:

Benefits of Assisted Living

Safety and Security: Assisted living facilities are designed to provide a safe environment with 24/7 supervision and emergency response systems.
Healthcare Access: Residents have easy access to medical care, including regular health check-ups and assistance with medications.
Social Interaction: These communities offer various social activities and events, helping seniors stay engaged and connected with others.
Daily Living Assistance: Staff members are available to help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and meal preparation, allowing seniors to maintain their independence while receiving the support they need.
Peace of Mind for Families: Knowing that their loved ones are in a supportive and caring environment can provide families with peace of mind.

Challenges and Considerations

Emotional Adjustment: Moving away from a familiar home can be emotionally challenging. It's important to provide emotional support and encourage open communication.
Cost: Assisted living can be expensive, and it's essential to understand the financial implications and explore available options for funding and assistance.
Finding the Right Fit: Not all assisted living facilities are the same. It's crucial to research and visit multiple locations to find the best fit for the senior's needs and preferences.

Tips for a Smooth Transition

Involve the Senior in Decision-Making: Ensure that the senior is actively involved in the decision-making process to help them feel more in control and comfortable with the move.
Personalize the Space: Bring personal items, photos, and familiar belongings to make the new living space feel like home.
Stay Connected: Regular visits and communication with family and friends can help ease the transition and provide ongoing support.

Moving into assisted living is a big step, but with the right approach and support, it can lead to a fulfilling and enriching new chapter in a senior's life.
