Assisted Living

Assisted Living provides a special combination of residential housing, personalized supportive services, and health care for people who need help with activities of daily living such as dressing, bathing, and grooming, but do not need the skilled medical care that is provided in a nursing home. 

Assisted Living communities can be apartments or single family homes. 

Assisted Living is generally paid for privately or with Long Term Care Insurance. 

If you would like more information, please call The Senior Alliance at 734-722-2830, or visit them online at www.aaa1c.org/.  You can also contact The Detroit Area Agency on Aging at 313-446-4444, or visit them online at www.daaa1a.org/.
