Faith Based Assisted Living

Catholic Assisted Living

Catholic faith based senior living communities provide their residents the opportunity to live fulfilling spiritual lives while getting the appropriate level of care of their bodies and minds. In Catholic retirement communities, Catholic traditions are well and alive. Expect Catholic faith based assisted living facilities to honor the Catholic holidays and to offer Catholic mass. Catholic senior homes may feature chapels located on the property or close by where various spiritual services such as Holy Rosary and Holy Mass take place.

Catholic assisted living homes provide support in daily activities of their senior residents as needed and services may include assistance with daily activities such as medication supervision, transportation to planned activities, wellness programs, dining services, social and recreational activities, help with cleaning and laundry and more.

Seniors who require a more extensive medical care may count on finding a Catholic nursing home or memory care center nearby. Catholic assisted living centers may also feature memory care units that specialize in caring for older people with memory related issues such as Alzheimer's Disease or Dementia.

Christian Assisted Living

Christian faith based senior living communities welcome people of all faiths but cater to a specific denomination. People who consider themselves a part of Protestant denomination such as Anglican, Baptist, Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian, Quakerism can find a retirement community that offers the participation in Church ceremonies according to their spiritual background.

Christian faith based senior care facilities offer additional services and amenities to their residents that may include transportation to local Churches, visits from a pastor and spiritual guidance provided by the local clergy, Bible studies, communion, as well as hymn sings. Religious based activities may be offered at the Christian care facility and seniors can take part in a daily mass. Other typical assisted living services and amenities are available and may include help with daily activities as needed, as well as meals, medication management and housekeeping services.

One of excellent examples of Christian Care Communities is Cummings Assisted Living, located in Fort Worth, Texas. Assisted living apartments in this Christian Senior Living community feature different floor plans that include comfortable one bedroom private units. Residents can enjoy different services and amenities that include transportation, recreational activities, nutritious and delicious meals and help with daily activities as needed.

Jewish Assisted Living

Jewish faith based senior living communities are oriented towards offering their residents the way of life that honors Jewish holidays and traditions. From kosher food options to observing the Sabbath, Jewish seniors can find the comfort and support they need in Jewish assisted living centers that can be found throughout the United States of America.

Jewish Home Assisted Living, for example, is a non-sectarian community that offers senior living options to Jewish and non-Jewish senior residents of New Jersey and the Tri-State area. This Jewish Assisted Living center offers memory care and Parkinson's center as well as services for seniors with Dementia. The Jewish Home Family was granted an Advanced Standing status by the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services for outstanding quality and consistency of service.

While faith based senior living communities welcome people of all religions, those that are dedicated to a particular faith may offer more services and opportunities to participate in religious services associated with a specific faith. For many seniors faith is an important component of their life and moving to a faith based assisted living facility may be the right choice for those who want to live in an environment that enriches their spiritual life.
