Typically, you’ll get two answers. One from communities that use an à la carte pricing model where the base price (like a budget airline ticket) only covers the basics. Every additional need is an additional charge.

The second answer is from communities that offer all-inclusive pricing where you’re not charged extra when additional care is needed. And with most residents in assisted living and memory care experiencing changes in their care needs in the first year, a predictable, consistent monthly fee can be more affordable in the long run. And a lot less stressful.

In his 2023 report, then Surgeon General of the United States, Dr. Vivek Murthy warned about the devastating health effects of loneliness and isolation. The findings, based on decades of research, should ring alarm bells for families with an older adult who is living alone.

According to the report, a lack of social connection is as deadly as smoking 15 ci******es a day and poses a greater risk to longevity than obesity and physical inactivity. What’s more, poor social relationships increase the risk of heart disease and stroke by up to 32%. For seniors especially, evidence also links social isolation and loneliness with accelerated cognitive decline and a 50% higher risk of developing dementia.

For older adults who struggle with things like bathing, dressing, grooming, and driving, loneliness and isolation can quickly become a problem. But a move to assisted living or memory support can bring a much brighter outlook.

On a crisp, clear October day, more than 60 residents and staff members walked to raise funds for the fight to end Alzheimer’s. Following the walk, everyone gathered at the outdoor kitchen and garden area for a seasonally inspired lunch that featured turkey sliders, sausages, vegan chili, vegan hot dogs, a baked potato bar, popcorn, pretzels, apple crisp, and apple cider donuts.

Held annually in more than 600 communities nationwide, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the world’s largest fundraiser for Alzheimer’s care, support, and research. This year’s walk at The Baldwin raised $3,925!

Thank you to everyone who participated in this event. Your support empowers families affected by this disease and leads the way to end Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.
