Assisted Living is a service for people who need help with the activities of daily living (ADLs). Assisted living facilities are special facilities that span the gap between independent living and nursing homes. They are especially designed to help seniors who are mostly independent but need assistance with some of the day-to-day activities. This assistance is provided by trained staff in such a way to promote maximum privacy, dignity, and choice for each resident.
