Professional Care Around-the-Clock For Assisted Living in Appleton

One of the most significant advantages of assisted living communities like Dimensions Living Appleton is the 24/7 presence of professional caregivers. Our dedicated staff members are on-hand to assist with day-to-day needs— also known as activities of daily living, medication management, and specialized health care needs in coordination with residents’ primary physicians. This level of care can be challenging for family members to maintain, especially if they have busy schedules or have their own children to care for at home.

Assisted living communities employ highly trained caregivers who are experienced in caring for the elderly. They monitor vitals, administer medications, and are skilled in handling the various medical emergencies that can arise when caring for an older adult. This level of care typically exceeds the level of expertise an adult child has, making assisted living in Appleton an attractive option for families.

Safety and Security

Safety is a top concern when it comes to elderly care. Assisted living communities like Dimensions Living Appleton are equipped with security measures and safety features such as emergency call systems, secured entry points, and trained personnel who can respond quickly to unforeseen circumstances. In addition, Laundry, chores, house cleaning, and maintenance can be difficult to keep up with while providing care to a loved one who is living in your home.

In addition, caregivers at Dimensions Living Appleton handle all housekeeping and maintenance tasks, ensuring that residents live in a clean and safe environment.

Social Interaction and Companionship

It’s no secret—families usually have busy schedules.

If you’re unable to focus on all aspects of your loved one’s wellness, you can inadvertently cause them to feel isolated and lonely which takes a toll on their mental and emotional well-being.

Nutritious Meals and Dining Services

If you are caring for your senior parent and still work a full-time job, serving three nutritious meals each day may not be an easy task for you. As you likely know, fast food or grab-and-go meals may be convenient, but they are not usually healthy and orders cannot always be customized to meet nutritional needs or restrictions. At Dimensions Living Appleton, our chef-prepared meals are designed to meet the dietary needs of seniors. Most seniors have some kind of dietary restrictions or health concern. Our culinary team specializes in catering to the special needs of our residents as well as their unique preferences.

Transportation Services

In most cases, elderly individuals no longer have the ability to drive safely. As adult children know, coordinating transportation on behalf of an older adult often comes with its own set of challenges. If a caregiver is unable to provide transportation themselves, they must coordinate ride logistics with another family member, friend, or transportation service.
