Aspirus Celebrates National Assisted Living Week: Providing quality care and independence to seniors

Aspirus Health is proud to observe National Assisted Living Week, a time dedicated to recognizing the essential role assisted living communities play in providing a safe, supportive environment for seniors. At Aspirus, our commitment to offering high-quality care and fostering independence for our residents is at the core of our assisted living services.

National Assisted Living Week, celebrated from September 8-14, is an opportunity to raise awareness about the benefits of assisted living. It is a time to honor the dedicated professionals who provide compassionate care and to recognize the vital contributions of these communities to the well-being of seniors.

'Our assisted living facilities are designed to help residents maintain their independence while receiving the support they need,' said Amanda Treffinger, Aspirus Housing Supervisor. 'We take each resident as an individual, providing personalized care plans and a variety of activities to ensure they can continue doing what they love while staying safe and secure.'

Aspirus operates several assisted living communities across Wisconsin, offering a range of services tailored to meet the unique needs of each resident. From medication management to assistance with daily activities, our facilities provide a flexible and supportive environment that allows seniors to live with dignity and autonomy.

'Assisted living gives seniors a choice in how they wish to live their later years,' said Mallori Strama, Director of Senior Care Services at Aspirus. 'It allows families peace of mind, knowing their loved ones are cared for in a setting that promotes independence. It's a proactive step that ensures seniors can maintain control over their lives, rather than waiting until a crisis dictates the next move.'

National Assisted Living Week also serves as a reminder for families to explore assisted living options before an emergency arises. By planning, families can ensure their loved ones receive the care they need in a setting that aligns with their preferences.

Aspirus invites the community to learn more about the services offered at our assisted living facilities during this important week. Please visit the Aspirus Assisted Living webpage for more information at https://www. aspirus.org/when-to-consider-assisted-living.
