Shell Point offers
assisted living seminar
Many people wait until a medical crisis before considering or making the move to assisted living, but the most difficult time to make decisions is when your health is in question and you are feeling weak. Senior adults and their family members can learn the facts and weigh the benefits of assisted living for themselves or a loved one by attending an Assisted Living Seminar at The Springs at Shell Point. The next seminar will be held Thursday, Sept. 25, at 10 a.m.
Shell Point’s team of experienced assisted living specialists, McKenzie Millis and Vivian Ciulla, are hosting the seminar to help attendees determine if it is the right time to consider assisted living. During the seminar, they will provide a better understanding of the differences between independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing care. They also provide a checklist of questions to use when visiting and evaluating a potential new home for a loved one. To learn more about assisted living, to request a brochure and to register for the seminar, call 454-2077. For information, email thesprings@shellpoint.org, or visit www.shellpoint.org/assistedliving .
Assisted living provides support for shopping, meal preparation, activities of daily living and housekeeping, along with the benefits of having a physician, pharmacy, and lifestyle amenities in close proximity.
