We know that 10,000 seniors turn 65 every day in the United States and finding the appropriate housing and care is crucial. The assisted living costs analysis that you can find at Assisted Living Facilities shows the average costs of senior living by state and is a valuable resource as older Americans consider their housing options. 

Assisted Living Research Institute is a community organization that prioritizes helping those who are disabled and the elderly fully enjoy their healthy years and age gracefully. The organization creates and publishes comprehensive, unbiased, free web-based resources.

Based on conversations with community leaders across the U.S., many aging adults are unaware of the available care options and programs that can help maintain their independence and quality of life. Caring.com has created a free resource that provides comprehensive information on topics like financial support and care options that are available in Alabama.

Senior citizens have unique needs when it comes to addiction treatment. Having grown up in a different generation from many others struggling with substance abuse, the elderly may view addiction differently. It is important that a drug rehab program covers issues that are relevant to the older generation, and this may be done most effectively through age-specific treatment.  The experts at drugrehab.org understand that many older adults may feel ashamed that they have a substance use disorder since they grew up in a time when people did not discuss these sorts of problems.  Seeking treatment before it is too late may give a loved one the chance to live a more full and meaningful life.

The mission at PayingForSeniorCare.com is to help the elderly and their families fully understand the cost of long term care and the programs that can provide financial support. PayingForSeniorCare.com has an online database of tools and resources that cover topics like available care options and free support that is available in every state across the US.  The website is designed to help families and caregivers locate information about senior care resources for their loved ones, and to find the public and private programs available to assist in covering the cost of such care.

SeniorLiving.org has developed a new guide: A Family’s Guide to Hiring the Right Senior Caregiver. As your loved ones age and need assistance at home, choosing the right caregiver that suits your family’s preferences is crucial.
