| Abstract
|
:
|
Destined to become the defining work on the subject, this timely reference addresses the single fastest growing segment of the senior living industry. Assisted living housing gives seniors who are unable to live independently, but who do not need intensive nursing home care, meals, housekeeping, and other services, as well as twenty-four hour access to medical assistance. This visually rich reference includes dozens of design solutions from successful assisted living facilities, along with fifteen case studies from the U.S. and Europe. It also covers recent developments in the industry including major changes in financing, growth of dementia, and interest in aging-in-place. All in all, it is the most comprehensive guide to assisted living design that you will find in any single volume.
