Assisted Living Tidbits:
Parkinson’s Disease and Assisted Living – are the related?
This may seem like a simple question, but they are very much related, and the correlation may be a bit confusing to some people.
Assisted Living unfortunately owns an outdated myth that it can only help seniors, or people who are suffering from some kind of memory disorder, such as Alzheimer’s Disease.
Rarely will you see a sign for “such and such assisted living facility & Parkinson’s Care.”
However, in recent years as more seniors (including young folks) are diagnosed with PD, assisted living is becoming a hugely valuable option for families who are no longer able to act as caregivers to their family member. Most facilities are equipped to handle most of the symptoms of PD – as they often times are similar to what people might face with other conditions – difficulty moving, getting dressed, eating, managing medication, etc.
We created a page that talks about how PD and assisted living are related, and we try to dispel some of the longstanding myths surrounding assisted living. You can read our take on it, and join the discussion here about Parkinson’s and assisted living.
Alabama is a great state to be! Warm weather and really nice people live here and there are numerous assisted living facilities to choose from. If you are suffering from any physical impairments, Alzheimer’s or any other cognitive decline, or if you have a loved one that may need assisted living, we hope our site helps to steer you in the right direction. If you have a facility in Alabama that you think should be listed on this page, please let us know!
During this century, the number of elderly in the United States has grown by a factor of 11. In the early 1900s, the elderly comprised 1 in 25 citizens in the United States, or a little over 3 million. Now, that number is 1 in 8, or approximately 34 million (as of 1997). Part of the reason for this increase is the declining fertility rates and mortality rates. The median age has risen as well – from 23 years old in 1900 to 35 years old in 1997. Alabama’s senior population is following this trend as well. In 1997, Alabama housed over 565,000 residents over 65.

Great questions and comments we have received about Alabama assisted living, and senior care:
I am currently looking into assisted living facilities for my father and would like some more information on your facility, including pricing. The problem is that my father can at times be a little aggressive, and borderline abusive, so we have been having trouble finding a proper senior care environment that will accept him. He is not physically abusive, but can lash out verbally when he isn’t feeling well. Most facilities we have checked in with so far have not been very ‘excited’ about accepting a resident like him. Any help would be appreciated.
