Finding Assisted Living Care for Your Loved One after an Injury

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one in every three adults age 65 and older will suffer from a fall. Many of these falls result in moderate to severe injuries such as lacerations, hip fractures, or head traumas. These injuries can make it hard to get around or live independently. Among older adults, falls are the leading cause of injury death. They are also the most common cause of nonfatal injuries and hospital admissions for trauma. Many people who fall, even if they are not seriously injured, develop a fear of falling. Having this fear may lead to an increased risk of falling because they limit their physical activities.

In 2008, I was faced with this same issue as my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. That experience inspired me to create a FREE service to help other families just like I helped Barry and Joan below. Contact me today to get your free guide.

My mother came to live with my husband and me after breaking her hip.  It was a difficult decision to move from Ohio to Texas, and the transition was causing a great deal of stress for an independent 89 yr. old woman.  Three different sources, thankfully, recommended Paul Markowitz of Senior Living Specialists, and it was the beginning of hopefulness in an overwhelming situation.  Paul’s one-on-one meeting with us was intuitive and insightful.  Within a short period Paul gave us a concise summary of Garland independent and assisted living homes closely matched to my mother’s needs, the budget and proximity to our home.  Although we had previously researched on-line, we were given names of facilities that we were not aware were nearby.  This report made our search productive and focused.  Most importantly we learned about the financial stability of the facility and the caregivers who worked there.  These were valuable insights that became apparent as we visited the homes. Paul’s advice comes from personal knowledge and he truly cares about his recommendations. Today, my mother is in a loving and caring assisted living environment, near our home, and actively engaged in a happy senior life. – Very grateful, Barry and Joan H,  Garland TX
