Assisted Living bridges the gap between living on your own and living in a nursing home. Assistance with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, eating, housekeeping and transportation is provided.   Choices will vary from single or double rooms to suites and apartments. Assisted living residences may be part of a retirement community, nursing home or elderly housing facility, or they may stand alone. Whatever the setting, assisted living offers the opportunity for residents to continue living as independently as possible.
