AssistedLiving.com Assisted Living Services Review

Assisted Living Options

AssistedLiving.com focuses on assisted living facilities that provide seniors with one- or two-bedroom apartments where they can still enjoy some degree of independence while getting the assistance they need with medications or daily activities. It doesn't provide information on specialized homes designed for seniors with Alzheimer's or dementia or independent living facilities for seniors, so if you're interested in one of these, you'll have to search elsewhere. But for those interested in a traditional assisted living facility, you'll find plenty of options with AssistedLiving.com.

Service Area

AssistedLiving.com helps connect seniors with assisted living facilities in the District of Columbia and all U.S. states except Alaska and Nevada. It also partners with facilities in the Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan. This is a broader area than many assisted living services offer, and it makes AssistedLiving.com one of the top choices to begin your search for an assisted living facility, unless you live in one of the few areas it does not currently serve.

Ease of Use

Getting started with AssistedLiving.com is pretty straightforward. If you live in a major city, you can click on that city from the home page to view options in your area. Otherwise, navigate to your state's page and click on your city to see facilities near you. You can filter your options by distance, cost, and number of bedrooms to help you quickly identify the options that best suit you. There's general pricing information for your area on the site, but you must contact AssistedLiving.com or the facility itself for detailed pricing information.

Those lacking the time to do an in-depth search of options in their area will appreciate AssistedLiving.com's list of its top providers as well as its Senior Advisors who assist seniors and their family members in reviewing their options and scheduling appointments to visit the top assisted living facilities in their area. Only a few of the top assisted living services offer this kind of white-glove treatment, and while not everyone will need it, it's undoubtedly useful for those who are overwhelmed by the process of choosing a senior living facility.

Online Resources

AssistedLiving.com provides accurate information on average assisted living costs in your area, which is helpful when you're trying to decide on a budget. It also has a Resources section with details on assisted living laws and other resources to help navigate senior-specific concerns like Medicare. Caregivers will appreciate the links to helpful agencies and the tips on how to adequately support and assist their loved ones. These resources are typical of the best assisted living services, and while not essential, it's nice to see AssistedLiving.com offer them to their clients.
