In this video I give you 10 areas to evaluate as you try to determine when is the right time to move your loved one.

For those of you who haven’t watched my video’s, I’m Jeff Kauffman. I’ve been working in Senior Housing since 2004. I’ve been a licensed administrator in 4 states and owned my own small assisted living company for 10 years. The goal of my senior housing videos is to bring easy to understand information that will help families, providers and people interested in the field of senior housing. If this interests you, I hope you subscribe to my channel as I’ll be uploading content on a regular basis.

Here are the ten areas for you to evaluate to help determine if it's time to make the move.

1. Can they still use the phone, dial 911?
Are they calling for the same reason over and over?
2. Can they still drive or arrange transportation?
3. Eating nutritious meals?
4. Is the home clean and sanitary?
5. Are they taking medications as directed by their doctor?
6. Are they a fall risk?
7. Have they forgotten to turn off the stove or water?
8. Do they need help with personal hygiene?
9. Are they socializing with others?
10. Are they staying hydrated?
