As the Baby Boomer generation reaches retirement age, the demand for high-quality elderly care is set to expand dramatically – and so, inevitably, will the supply.

Every year, the Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA) – an advocacy group that works with federal and state policymakers to promote quality of life for elderly individuals – recognizes some of the most innovative assisted living programs in the country.

So, how can you ensure that your assisted living community will stand out as one of the most attractive offerings for prospective clients?

  1. Ease the transition by promoting social engagement – By offering a service that allows elderly individuals to contact their loved ones instantly and easily, you can absolve much of the stress associated with this shift. With our technology-enabled independent living solution, Angela, care recipients can connect with family members via Facebook, Skype and Email through an LG television.
  2. Enhance your service with mobile technology – Making use of new advancements in elderly care technology can help ensure that a care manager can respond to any crisis or concern as it occurs. Our Caregiver Web App allows care managers to view schedules and set up alerts for all of the individuals within their assisted living community.
  3. Honor the lives of your care recipients – To show your personal investment and appreciation for your care recipients as individuals, take the time to commemorate those who have passed. “A resident death is always heart wrenching at the community,” writes ALFA. ” What does your community do that is extra special?” The “Life Stories”  function in our Caregiver Web App allows care recipients to record their experiences, so family members and friends can cherish them for years to come.
  4. Balance independence and engagement – For many who have passed retirement age, maintaining independence is an essential aspect of their quality of life. The most attractive assisted living communities must be able to accommodate this sensibility while still offering opportunities for socialization and engagement.
  5. Offer optionsAging in place is highly desirable for most elderly people. Using our elderly care technology solution, your care recipient can stay in their home longer while still benefiting from close monitoring. You can even keep remote care recipients abreast of social events at your facility.

By outfitting your assisted living community with Independa’s integrated elder care solution, you can give your assisted living community the competitive edge that will attract new clientele while improving overall satisfaction for your current care recipients.
