Decorating Tips for Assisted Living Apartments

by Jessica Wilson Blog Writer
You may feel like moving into an assisted living apartment will not feel like home. However, with a few small decorating tips, you can transform the space into a home where you can continue having your remarkable moments. The new area will perfectly complement your lifestyle and put up with your needs. Even the way you decorate your home has a direct impact on the way it makes you feel. 
Here are assisted living decorating keys that can improve safety and boost the mood of your loved one.

Use multi-functional furniture

Furniture that offers more than one purpose can help you lay aside valuable floor space, meaning more room for you and your belongings. Here are examples of furniture that can be kept in the assisted living room

Foldable or stackable chairs; you can bring this extra seating to conserve space.
Space-saving desks; if you enjoy writing, sketching, or crafting, this desk can be of excellent service
Drop leaf tables; a classic table that is a great way to save some space where they are used as a desk.
Shelves and drawers galore; furniture that has extra storage space built-in
Arrange the furniture carefully

You want your room easy to navigate. You can make your room more convenient for you to move around and reduce chances of falling if the room has unobstructed paths and widened walkways. You can plan where furniture can go before the move. Or if you are arranging your parent's room and use a wheelchair, you should probably keep that in mind.

Choose engaging colors

Consider the feelings that these colors invoke. For example, yellow might be an excellent option for your kitchen or powder room. Yellow symbolizes energy and can help improve your mood and get you charged and excited for the day. Red can promote negative feelings like anger and hostility. Blue is for lounging as it encourages feelings of serenity and is known for contributing to calm and relaxing spaces.

Ensure all essentials are easy to reach

When organizing your essentials, make sure they are within reach and easy to reach. You should not feel inconvenienced or strained in your place. The assisted living home is designed to ease stress and reduce hardships keeping life convenient and comfortable. This is one of its many advantages.

Keep hobbies in mind

If you love to embroider, think about using a cart to hold their supplies or, if you like to scrapbook, make sure there is a space for them to layout the pages. If you want to socialize, there will also be common spaces for them to enjoy in the assisted living community. Paul Griffin III, the founder of the assisted living builder, has made it easier by overseeing the development projects, including residential homes.

Consider functional storage in small spaces.

There is so much to consider when it comes to your belongings during moving to an assisted living home. But, once you know what to go with, start building creative ways to store and easily access those items.

Once you settle well, you will be able to begin a new chapter in your life. However, finding the right place for you can be difficult. Find an assisted living home where you can maintain your lifestyle.
