How Assisted Living Communities Can Benefit Seniors

Choosing the right senior living option can be overwhelming with the various options available. At Balfour Senior Living, our assisted living communities stand out with their combination of compassionate care for daily activities and a vibrant lifestyle full of social opportunities, health and wellness programs, and community excursions that enable seniors to live their best life. Below, we expand on some of the benefits that our assisted living communities can bring to your loved one.

Engage In Physical Activity

Staying active is essential for seniors as they age as it reduces the risk of illnesses. Getting daily physical activity helps maintain good circulation, a healthy blood sugar level, and a balanced heart rate.

As part of our amenities across our locations in Colorado and Michigan, our assisted living communities have a variety of indoor and outdoor activities to help keep residents active and engaged, including:

• Gardening sessions

• A yoga studio

• Fitness classes

• Private painting classes

• And much more!

Have A Well-Balanced Diet

Good nutrition and delicious food are crucial for seniors, but a pleasant dining atmosphere is equally important. Most assisted living communities offer three full meals per day for all residents. Balfour Senior Living takes it a step further by involving residents in the design of chef-prepared menus, resulting in unique and personalized options that cater to individual tastes and dietary requirements. Our trained and executive culinary staff have the necessary skills and experience to provide residents with an exquisite dining experience.

Socialize

As people age, they may become more isolated which can lead to various mental and physical health issues. Our assisted living communties provide a supportive and loving environment for seniors to become part of a community with people of their age. Activities are organized to encourage social interaction, from arts and crafts to monthly and annual events, such as our Dad’s Day Car Parade, allowing residents to enjoy the companionship of their neighbors.

Be Relieved Of Stress

By providing an opportunity for seniors to lead a more independent and social lifestyle while still receiving care and support when they need it, assisted living communities can significantly enhance the quality of life for seniors by reducing stress. Our onsite nurses understand the importance of maintaining one’s independence, which is why they are available to your senior loved one whenever they need assistance.

Not only do assisted living communities relieve your loved one of stress, but they lift the stress off your shoulders as well. We understand that senior living situations can be challenging for a family, which is why you can have peace of mind knowing that your loved one is living in an atmosphere that offers the security, support, and care they need.
