As flowers start to bloom in all their glory around our many campuses, we look forward to Spring and the joy of Easter.
Easter is a time to celebrate a new season, and exciting new beginnings. At this time of year, we are reminded that we have been given a unique opportunity to reach out to those in need of compassion, care and love within our communities and beyond.
As we age, many of us may require assistance with our daily activities. The reasons may vary, but there’s one constant factor involved for all families: health care comes at a cost. Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers will cover many medical services associated with aging, but what costs can families expect? How can you ensure you get great care without spending a fortune?
Whether you’re looking for long-term senior care for yourself or for a loved one, you may have a lot of questions as you evaluate your options. The right choice for each person depends on his or her unique daily needs and ideal retirement atmosphere. There are distinct differences between programs like Assisted Living and Independent Living, and we are here to help you understand the difference and find what works best for you or your loved one.
The FDA has recently approved a second booster of either the Moderna or Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines for individuals who are 50 years of age or older. Since older individuals generally are at a higher risk of infection, and may experience more severe symptoms if they catch COVID-19, the vaccine boost is intended to ensure those at a higher risk are still protected.
At Pacifica Senior Living, we love our pets! Pets bring joy and love to our lives, and become like family to us. They can be especially important to seniors who enjoy the companionship and sense of purpose having a furry friend can bring.
Many of our Pacifica Senior Living communities are pet friendly so our residents can feel at home knowing their pets are welcome too. Transitioning to a senior living community can be a big step, and bringing a pet along can help ease the transition. Other communities offer pet therapy or have robotic pets to ensure everyone gets to enjoy the benefits of pets!
Friendship can be one of the most important parts of life. Being able to connect, share, and experience life together can make everything richer, warmer and more meaningful. It can be challenging to make new friends - or even maintain friendships - as we age, but that is the time that connections with others can be the most significant. Seniors can feel isolated or secluded as they age, especially if they live alone, and that is why communities such ours at Pacifica Senior Living and the Meridian Communities are so important to ensuring seniors have a full and rich life.
This spring, it's time to clean out what you aren't using and hit refresh. Spring is a great time for renewal, new beginnings, and making changes, and that includes finding a new place to call home. This spring we invite you to choose Pacifica Senior Living and make the move to one of our award-winning Independent or Assisted Living Communities.
