Press release from: Assisted Living Facilities

AssistedLivingFacilities.org is a new web resource launched to help senior citizens become more informed consumers. Because there are so many factors to consider, Assisted Living Facilities is a critical resource geared towards informing potential assisted living residents. Assisted living facilities has emerged as an ideal private pay senior housing option for some seniors.
One of the most helpful tools that Assisted Living Facilities offers seniors and their loved ones is unbiased information relating to assisted living as it is defined state by state. The assisted living directory contains all the licensed facilities for each state, over 40,000 nationwide. Using this information, a senior or family member can research all licensed assisted living communities in their area, and use the available information to help make a more informed decision in their senior care selection process. Plus, each state’s specific requirements are explained in detail, while the necessary state contacts are also offered for those wishing more information.
The website also operates a comprehensive senior care blog that offers helpful information and advice from authors experienced in the senior care industry. Because assisted living is regulated at the state level, and not at the federal level, there are different licensing requirements and terminology used between states throughout the country.
Each blog author brings a different viewpoint from within the senior care industry, whether it's a former nursing aide with eldercare experience, a caretaker whom has experience with the assisted living selection process, or an industry author and researcher. Blog subjects range from assisted living industry news, senior care company spotlights, and advice to seniors for dealing with loneliness while living in assisted care homes.
As the site grows, Assisted Living Facilities will be adding assisted living facility reviews, more expanded and in-depth senior care company profiles, more analysis of various senior healthcare statistics and cost information and other helpful eldercare information. The website URL is https://www.assistedlivingfacilities.org/.
