Whether regarding skilled care, skilled nursing, or memory care, especially during the pandemic myths have persisted about senior living. In this segment Kelley Smith at CarePartners Senior Living explains that the general public's impression of senior living is based on folklore. People think their mom will move in and be isolated, as when you changed schools as a kid. But that's not giving the communities enough credit. A lot of communities have ambassadors that introduce your mom  to new people. That's why you fill out a social assessment – for instance if she's from Norway they might sit her with someone from Norway. A lot of communities put their residents first, with activities, and have a way of making sure the residents are entertained throughout the day. There's something for everyone.
