• Introduction
  • The concepts of senior adult care, are all intertwined but also fragmented into minor parts in each separate direction. The Past to the future has changed these areas of senior adult care options, making minor focuses from the past into major arena areas of the future. Much of these changes result in the quality of care verse the quantity of the dollar spent, whether it is private, federal, managed, or state funding. With a full understanding of the levels of care concepts, individuals can formulate a possible new thought process to why, how, where, and when any senior adult care changes should be utilized and reviewed.

  • He is a semi-independent person whose is in need of care but at this time can maintain some independence. CCRC housing would allow him the flexibility of housing choices as his needs change. He has no children, wife is deceased. The current neighbor is about to have surgery which prevents her from caring for him. he fact that he has neuropathy and is a diabetic requiring 4 insulin shots Q day, he is likely to decline as he has and be unable to perform those. Also many ALF, CCRC’s allow for pets as long as they can manage them. It appears that he is financially sound, including selling the home to have the ability to buy into a community.
  • I feel that due to is chronic conditions and multiple health issues presently and in past that referral to local CCRC would be beneficial to him and family.
