Yesterday’s Tuesday Forum presentation gave us a thoughtful look at assisted living and what families should consider when choosing the right community for a loved one.
Mary-Ann Saxl from Evergreen Assisted Living shared how their smaller Maine communities focus on creating a home and family environment while supporting independence, dignity, and quality care.
She also shared some important questions families should ask, from how staff get to know each resident’s preferences to training, family communication, and how concerns are handled.
Thank you, Mary-Ann, for stepping in on short notice and sharing such valuable insight with us!
