#113 Redefining Assisted Living Care with Alessandro Insolia

In this episode of the Listen for Life Aphasia podcast, we talk about the critical topic of assisted living and how families can determine when a loved one may require such care. Genevieve welcomes Alessandro Hello@bouquethomes.com, the founder of Bouquet Homes, who shares his journey into the assisted living sector. He emphasizes that assisted living can be a temporary solution for those needing extra care, not just a permanent one.

Alessandro's diverse background, including his experience as an EMT, inspired him to create smaller, neighborhood-style assisted living homes that integrate into the community, offering a homelike atmosphere. Bouquet Homes focuses on personalized care with a low caregiver-to-resident ratio, ensuring each resident receives the attention they need. Residents share their favorite activities, foods, and music, allowing staff to tailor their experience. The homes offer various activities like arts and crafts, music therapy, and pet therapy to enhance residents' quality of life.

Top Takeaways:

• Assisted living can be a temporary solution for those needing extra care.

• Smaller, community-integrated homes provide a more personalized and homelike environment.

• Low caregiver-to-resident ratios ensure individualized attention and care.

• Activities tailored to residents' preferences enhance their quality of life.
