Finding that special someone isn’t easy, and staying together for life is even more challenging. So if your loved ones have made it to their golden years while still happily married, then that’s something huge.
However, in their old age, they might struggle with tasks they handled with ease before. You’d like to have peace of mind knowing that they’re in good care, so you’re exploring assisted living communities.
In that case, we’re here to show you why the answer to “Why choose assisted living?” is pure positivity. Here’s what you can expect from assisted living for couples at Morada Midwest City.
A Comfortable Living Space
Love birds of any age need their privacy, and that’s exactly what your loved ones will get here. They can choose from either a 288-square-foot studio (Baywood) or a 360-square-foot one-bedroom apartment. Both come with one bathroom that’s no problem to share.
In this private space, your loved ones can decorate it however they wish. It’ll certainly put a smile on your face when you see their apartment adorned with pictures and keepsakes they’ve collected throughout their marriage.
If the couple has any furry friends, then you’ll be pleased to know that the community is pet-friendly. They’ll be able to make cherished memories with their treasured pet, as well as reap health benefits from having them around.
All apartments have illuminated entryways for our residents’ safety. There are also smoke detectors and sprinkler systems in case of emergencies.
Your loved ones won’t have to lift a finger to maintain their apartment either. We provide housekeeping and laundry services every week, as well as regular apartment maintenance. These services for senior couples will enable them to enjoy each other’s company without worrying about tiring chores.
Support From Trained Staff
Your loved ones have taken care of each other all their lives, and while they’re glad to do it, it still takes a lot of effort. Both of them deserve to fully bask in their golden years with all their hard work behind them.
The couple will have a private space to share, but they’ll also have support from trained staff when they need it. We offer personal care plans that involve assistance with things like medication management, bathing, and dressing.
Our staff members will only step in when they’re needed, so your loved ones won’t have a third wheel around all the time. As a result, they can still lead independent lives.
Should there be an emergency, rest easy knowing that we have 24-hour staffing. You can count on us to react promptly and take appropriate actions to ensure that our residents are comfortable and safe.
Exciting Social Events
Maybe your loved ones like to be homebodies; there’s nothing wrong with being introverted, and staying in can help them bond more. However, social isolation can negatively affect their health, even if they interact with one another often. So it’s best if they get out and socialize with fellow residents.
Our large grounds allow everyone to mingle organically. Whether it’s in the garden, fitness center, lounges, or activity spaces, there are plenty of chances for your loved ones to strike up conversations with others.
Plus, our schedule’s always full of interesting activities! The couple can meet like-minded residents while doing things like:
- Worshipping at church
- Playing games (like bingo)
- Watching shows and movies
- Exercising
- Reading
- Walking the community
They may even meet other couples, which opens the door to dates at each other’s apartments and double dates elsewhere. With such a rewarding social life, our residents thrive, both physically and mentally. And as a result, this leads to a more positive outcome in life.
Fun Dates
Speaking of dates, the romance will definitely stay alive in our assisted living community. As you can see from the previous section, there are numerous activities on the agenda that provide hours of fun and laughter. In addition, your loved ones can have lovely dates in our garden or relive their younger years by viewing a movie at our state-of-the-art theater.
We give our residents ample opportunities to explore outside of the community too. We schedule several outings to local landmarks and shopping centers, as well as restaurants, which can reignite the spark between your loved ones.
At Morada Midwest City, we also have a fitness center and hair salon. These allow residents to look and feel their best, which can help keep the romance alive as well. Your loved ones won’t ever get bored in our community.
Delicious Meals
Cooking may be something that your loved ones like doing. But after decades of it, cooking can be a tiring chore, even if they switch off. Plus, having to come up with your own menu for years can be exhausting.
The couple can forget all about prepping and cooking; they can head over to our elegant dining room instead. Here, one of the benefits of assisted living is that talented chefs will prepare meals that are tasty, filling, and most importantly, healthy. Every bite will be filled with fresh and locally sourced ingredients, ensuring that they get the nourishment they need.
In the dining room, they can also get a nice change of scenery from their apartment. They’ll have the flexibility to either dine on their own for quality time or with their friends for some social interaction.
Enjoy Assisted Living for Couples
If it’s time for your loved ones to get some help in their daily lives, then assisted living for couples is something to consider. They can get their own apartment and live independently while receiving necessary assistance from staff members, which gives them a good balance in life.
In addition, our community offers various enriching benefits and amenities. Our premises are secure too, so you and your family won’t have to worry.
