Assisted Living Tidbits:

Seniors in Arlington have a great resource at their fingertips on the Arlington, Virginia official county Website! You can find a variety of senior services, activities and adult programs for county residents over the age of 55! Seniors can even take computer classes at Lee Senior Center by calling 703-228-6425. Did you know that assisted living facilities in Arlington and Virginia are licensed by the Virginia Department of Social Services Being the voice of Assisted Living in Arlington, and Virginia: As we have developed this site, we have spent a lot of time researching assisted living from state to state, including laws, regulations, and general sense of participation and harmony with assisted living facilities, their administrators, and the people who run the state. Some states, we get the distinct impression that there isn't a strong, unified voice speaking for assisted living regarding the important issues facing our seniors, and facilities. In some states, if there is an association or group, it may be small, under-funded, and lacking in participation. An organization's website is often the first indicator as to how organized and influential they are. Unfortunately, we've seen assisted living association websites that haven't been updated in years, and if we try to contact them, the message bounces back to us, which sends a poor message. It is so important for anyone and everyone who is involved in the assisted living industry in any state to participate actively with your state's or city's assisted living association, or relevant agency to push for the strongest Regulatory and Legislative impact possible. As they say, 'the squeaky wheel gets the greasin...' and that absolutely applies here. A strong, unified, and active voice can lead to the best legislation for the assisted living industry, as well as the seniors and residents who live in the facilities. Virginia, fortunately, has a good...almost model example of an assisted living association (VALA). Their website is fresh, and updated frequently with new information. The VALA also invites discussions by posting relevant blogs and articles, and also clearly lists any upcoming events, encouraging participation and activism. In addition, the VALA provides a basic directory of assisted living facilities in the State of Virginia who are members of the VALA, and who are active in pushing for the most positive impact on, and voice to Virginia's General Assembly.
