How To Choose An Assisted Living Facility

Deciding to place a loved one in an assisted living facility can feel overwhelming. In this episode of the Navi Nurses Podcast, host Jasmine sits down with registered nurse and assisted living managing partner Ashley Thompson to discuss what you need to know when choosing senior care for aging parents.

Together, Jasmine and Ashley share critical advice on what questions to ask when touring facilities, the major differences between large facilities and smaller home-based settings, understanding caregiver staffing ratios, and why choosing a nurse-owned and operated assisted living home provides better clinical oversight and peace of mind.

Ashley also shares her journey from bedside nursing in trauma and ICU settings to concierge nursing with Navi Nurses and managing residential assisted living homes. Finally, Jasmine and Ashley discuss the critical importance of designating a trusted Medical Power of Attorney (POA) and having open end-of-life conversations with family.
