\nWhen home-shoppers arrive in Florida, realtors love using the phrase, “Location! Location! Location!”<\/p>\n

It’s a timeworn guideline for real estate and selling preferred locations.<\/p>\n

It’s also important when a family is considering a move for an elderly parent needing a new residence with services and facilities for assistance and care.<\/p>\n

Location may mean more frequent visits by family members and friends. But location is secondary to the security and safety factors offered by communities like The Peninsula.<\/p>\n

We always advise families to make up their own “shopping list” of key items, prioritizing daily care as well as the type of services offered.<\/p>\n

Other key considerations: comfort and security features in living accommodations, ability to personalize a residence with treasured personal items and furnishings, activity and social programs, dining service and both staff and administrative support.<\/p>\n

There are many other factors to consider in determining if a community is a good fit for your loved one. Newcomers to a community like The Peninsula often find their social interaction increases when discovering the enjoyment of talking with similar people when they have spent so much time living alone.<\/p>\n

So while living within easy commuting distance is definitely a “plus” for family members; security and safety for an elderly parent are always paramount considerations when considering their relocation.<\/p>\n

It’s why we invite those considering a new residence to stop by for one or more visits at The Peninsula. We welcome comparison shopping and are always pleased to host family visits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
