Why We’re Different
We’re non-profit and not paid by assisted living providers or other companies, meaning the information we provide is unbiased. Because we’re university-based, the information we provide is research-quality.
The Facts
Assisted living residences vary widely in terms of their services, costs, policies, staffing, and other features.
People don’t realize these differences, which could lead to a bad choice at this critical time.
- The right choice can improve quality of life, while the wrong choice can cause worry and problems
- The wrong choice can require a second move, which is additionally disruptive and costly
- The average cost of an assisted living stay over time is almost $80,000, making the right choice an important financial one
- Making the right choice is time-consuming, requiring weeks of telephone calls and internet searches
- Internet searches may be misleading because the information is often incomplete, imprecise, outdated, and designed to attract customers
