Aging Americans Look to the Web to Search for Assisted Living

Oct. 4, 2010 - PRLog -- After seven years helping aging Americans and their families to search for senior living communities, AssistedLivingSource.com has re-launched with a fresh new design making it easier than ever to search for assisted living.
   
Senior housing has become a booming and competitive industry with the result that aging Americans have more and better options than ever before. Today’s assisted living facilities are vibrant and stimulating communities in contrast to the depressing image of yesterday’s ‘rest homes’. The problem is most people don’t know how or where to begin exploring and comparing those options when the need arises.

With families geographically scattered, more and more adults are looking to the internet to research senior living communities for themselves or their loved ones. Directory sites like AssistedLivingSource.com ( http://www.assistedlivingsource.com ) allow users to research and compare facilities that are not in their own neighborhoods.

“Most people searching the web for assisted living are looking on behalf of a family member who lives elsewhere. A directory style website allows people to shop around from a distance.”  - Rachel Evans, Site Manager AssistedLivingSource.com. Users can search for assisted living,  independent living, Alzheimer’s care, nursing homes, or home care anywhere in the United States to view pictures, descriptions, pricing and other important information about the communities in the area. They may then request more information from the communities that meet their needs and budget.
