Transition Times

The decision to make a lifestyle change from living on your own to moving into a retirement home can be difficult and emotional whether you are healthy or have health issues requiring more care. Seniors Transition Solutions recognizes that this type of transition will be exciting for some and challenging for others. Some seniors will embrace the change, while others may feel that they are losing their independence. The best time to make the move is when you are still healthy and enjoying life.

There may be a number of reasons why seniors move into a retirement home:

  • Upkeep of their home is overwhelming
  • No longer able to look after themselves physically
  • They do not want to be a burden on their children/multigenerational living overwhelming
  • Loss of a spouse
  • Isolation
  • Safety becoming an issue
  • Trouble remembering to take medication

The benefits of living in a retirement home are:

  • Feel safe/secure in your new home environment
  • Have professional staff on hand if you need them to assist with administration, bathing etc.
  • Have meals, cleaning and laundry taken care of for you
  • Participate in social activities and have fun
