  2. Visiting the premises, meeting the staff and facility members, you will get a first-hand look at what a facility has to offer. If you have decided to explore assisted living in Sterling Heights MI, you will want to take a time to learn more about the assisted living communities in the region. It is important to locate a facility that feels right to you and your family. When you visit, you should ask some questions to yourself and to other people who live and work there. The checklist given below will help you know what to look for so you can make the most informed decision.

  3. ENVIRONMENT: Welcoming and Inviting Environment: This is the place where your loved ones will spend most of their time. When you see the facility, it should feel like a place you’d want to live, where you could come and visit often. The staff should be friendly and inviting. Accessible Space:  All areas should be easily accessible to persons with canes, wheelchairs, and walkers. All spaces should be clear, open or easy to move around in and no area should seem crowded. The floor plan should not be a cause for concern. Outdoor Area:  A breath of fresh air always has a powerful effect on people’s health of all ages. An assisted living community should have a garden or outdoor area where people can have morning or evening walks, can sit, or just be outside. Decoration:  The decoration Should Be Attractive And Have A Home Like Feel. The assisted living community should feel as if you or your loved one belongs there.

  4. THEIR LIFESTYLE: Availability of Food Whenever Residents Want It:  Some residents may want a midnight snack or eat later than others and can get hungry earlier. Food should always be available for the residents as and when they want. Residents Should Appear Clean And Well-Groomed:  It’s kind of a little thing to look for but it shows a high level of professionalism and most important the kind of service its staff renders. Residents Are Social With One Another:  It is a good thing to see residents chatting with each other. Ideally, they should seem interested and engaged in the activities available.

  5. THEIR STAFF: Staff Should Be Open And Helpful To Families:  The staff is not just there for residents, they must be there for you as well. Staff should be able to answer your question about your relatives or be proactive in keeping you informed, and also help prepare you for the transition. Individual Attention Given By The Staff To All The Residents:  You should see staff interacting with individuals, not just groups and calling residents by their name. Staff should have conversations with residents and be able to help them with any questions they have. Hopefully, this checklist will help you find the right senior living center in Sterling Heights for your loved one.
