5 Benefits of a Companion Suite

Many family caregivers resist the thought of putting a loved one into a companion suite because they don't like the idea of their mom or dad having a roommate. The truth is companion suite can be an excellent option with many benefits and an affordable option. 

Companion suites: Creating a more connected community

Many seniors feel isolated or lonely upon moving into a senior living community. One way to make the shift into a new situation smoother is by bringing together two compatible residents to share the experience. Even at the bare minimum, having someone in the same situation to commiserate with can feel comforting and provide a sense of connection. Sharing a living space is a great way to reduce feelings of loneliness and promote engagement and purpose. 

Compatibility

Our shared suites offer a private room with a shared bath. Our team assists with scheduling any assistance needed for the restroom, showers, or bedtime to ensure both residents' utmost comfort. While the square footage of shared space is smaller, it is designed to find creative ways to increase privacy while encouraging social interaction by engaging incompatible habits to avoid constant isolation. These suites often feel homier when families tour them.

Safety 

We find many residents feel safer having a roommate they feel can help alert caregivers if there are any issues, including using the restroom's emergency call system. This also provides them with a sense of purpose, as roommates feel more productive that they can provide valuable assistance by looking out for another person.

Lower Price Point

Companion suites are a great budget-friendly option to get with ample memory care benefits for your loved one. Your family will be saving money each month on the room, and your loved one will live in a more desirable community. 

Customized Care for your loved one
