Have you ever tried searching for senior care?
There are some strategies to help you find more specific attributes of a community. The interest in terms around assisted living remain high while certain more specific terms such as skilled nursing and memory care have increased greatly in searching for the right community for you or your loved one. Currently searches are still attached to the senior, care, assistance and nursing and specialty terms however with future inventions and technology solutions come new search terms and terminology to go along with it. It is valuable to add a longer term search with location, activities, services to help you better find what you are looking for.
“When people are searching for themselves, they tend to look for things like independent living or 55+ active communities. But when they’re looking for others, they tend to look for things like skilled nursing or assisted living communities.”
– Marc Heneghan of Google –
Searching for senior care using specific terms like skilled nursing care, continuing care retirement community, or assisted living facilities is more common and helpful than broad terms like nursing homes.
The amenities and features you are searching for could include activities and events, quality of food, pets, transportation options, and the size of bedrooms.
When searching for care for others, including looking for community features they search for different care types, medical services offered, hospitals near the community, and staff-to- patient ratios.
