Choosing the Right Assisted Living Home / Nursing Home in San Antonio

What to Consider When Choosing an Assisted Living Home:
There’s quite a bit to consider before choosing an Assisted Living Home in San Antonio for yourself or loved one. Considering moving into an assisted living home might be the right decision if your loved ones need to focus on their health and wellbeing without having to manage everything on their own.
There are number of things to consider. A good assisted living home / nursing home must offer the followings:
Do They Answer the Phone? Give them a Call.
Get in touch with each place on your list. Ask questions about how many people live there and what it costs. Some assisted living homes offer private or semi-private rooms. At Carol Ann’s Home, we offer both options. Find out about waiting lists too. Ask about the qualifications and read the reviews. Carol Ann’s Home is a family owned and operated assisted living home with 3 locations in San Antonio.
Schedule a Visit. Go see them in action.
Make plans to meet with the assisted living home director and look for the following:
- Handicap access
- Residents who look well cared for
- Warm interaction between staff and residents
- Is there a safe patio or garden where residents can walk safely? Health providers suggest poor access to gardens or outdoor space is significantly associated with symptoms of depression.
- Do Staff seem friendly and is there a right ratio of staff to residents?
