Who Is Right for Short-Term Care?
Short-term care can be provided to seniors with different care needs, from normally independent seniors set-back by illness or injury to persons living with dementia and Alzheimer’s already receiving around the clock care. The common thread is that they all need compassionate, attentive care for a short time in a welcoming community. Whether they come for a few months or only for the day, short-term residents still benefit from engaging activities for connection, well-appointed amenities, a sense of security and beautiful community spaces.

Short-term Care Services
Short-term rehabilitative care is offered by several of our communities. We welcome you to contact your community of interest and learn about the personalized care options they offer.
Short-term Care
Short-term care for seniors is available in many different lifestyles, but is most often provided for seniors needing Assisted Living and Memory Care. Families are able to place residents into a safe, caring community for a temporary stay with the assurance that they will be in a welcoming and caring environment. Senior Lifestyle communities take the time to understand visiting resident’s needs, wants, and preferences to provide the same attentive care our permanent residents receive.
Short-term Rehabilitation
Residents may require a short-term stay to recover from an illness or injury. Many communities provide on-site therapies that help make treatments more convenient, providing spaces for occupational, speech, and physical therapy. Attentive team members and a restful environment also support recovery.
Respite Care
Respite care is often most commonly associated with Memory Care or Skilled Nursing, providing loving caregivers and families with a much-needed break from tending to their loved ones. Our Senior Lifestyle communities that offer respite care provide the same personalized, attentive care to visiting residents. Seniors visiting our communities who are living with dementia or Alzheimer’s benefit from secure spaces and adapted programming and care. Their families and caregivers can feel confident while away, knowing their loved one is in compassionate, capable hands.
Adult Day Services
Similar to respite care, adult day services provide opportunities for families and caregivers to take a break with convenient options for smaller windows of time away from their loved ones. Our communities provide Assisted Living and Memory Care at daily or hourly rates, allowing caregivers time to run errands or attend appointments with confidence. Their loved ones benefit from socialization and enjoyable activities while being cared for in a safe, welcoming environment.
