Both independent and assisted senior living options foster independence and help older adults live longer, healthier lives. The focus of independent living is providing conveniences for older adults who lead an active lifestyle and have very little to no need for support services. Assisted living offers care and support services for residents who need a helping hand with daily activities – such as bathing, grooming, incontinence, medication reminders and transportation – but do not require more specialized medical or nursing care.

All residents at Atria Fairhaven receive a care assessment to ensure their individual care needs will be met. This assessment helps us ensure residents receive appropriate care and is among the factors we consider in determining and monitoring staff levels.
