Overview
It can be overwhelming deciding to move to Assisted Living if you don't know the right questions to ask, have a way to consolidate and organize your answers and compare your options. The Seniors Resource Hub(TM) - Assisted Living Comparison Checklist has direct questions and suggested actions which will provide important information for the fact-based Assisted Living decision making process. When it's time to compare options and make a decision, it can be risky to rely on your memory alone and possibly confuse one option or facility with another. Additionally, using the checklist helps eliminate emotional or impulse decisions and allows for a happier and smoother transition. Once you or your senior has made the move, you don't want to regret your decision. We've organized this checklist into logical categories to assist with the decision making process: General Information, Assisted Living Services, Management and Staffing, Communication, Resident Satisfaction, References, Contract and Fees and a Glossary.

Author Information
"Kathy Smith's journey began as primary caregiver for her aunt and parents several years ago, it quickly became apparent that with the best intentions as a caregiver, she was maneuvering in an area which was unfamiliar to her and the stakes were high. Reaching out to anyone and everyone for information, opinions and support was essential for success. Always finding the right resource with the right experience and information at the right time didn't always happen in her required timeframe. As Kathy's journey evolved, her caregiver knowledge improved and her network grew; more and more friends and relatives entering the caregiver role would approach Kathy to discuss her experiences and ask for advice. While making care and housing decisions for my seniors at Hospitals, Rehabs Centers, Respite Care Facilities, Assisted Livings and Nursing Homes it became apparent that tools addressing these areas were needed to make other caregiver's journeys easier. With that, Kathy founded Seniors Resource Hub (TM) and this is one of the tools created. Additional tools include ""Nursing Home/Skilled Nursing Facility Comparison Checklist"", ""Senior eHealth Records Repository"" as well as the ""Senior Downsizing and Moving Checklist and Tools""."
