What Should I Expect to Feel When Making the Transition to an Assisted Living Facility?

Like any big change one experiences in their life, there are a wide array of emotions. It’s normal to feel overwhelmed and you may also be a little apprehensive to move out. The best thing to do is communicate your feelings to a loved one or a member of the facility. Talking about it is one of the best ways to work through your emotions. Remember that you’re moving because you want your quality of life to improve and there are going to be people and professionals to help achieve this. Do not fall into the trap of feeling sorry for yourself. It is very easy to get down on yourself, but this type of thinking will only prevent you from living your best life. Get excited and do your best to make the most out of the transition. Assisted living offers an opportunity for you to be more active and social. It also allows you to be more independent, so embrace it!
