Assisted living homes for people with disabilities represent an innovative residential solution. They combine autonomy and personalized support for residents.
Our 32 assisted living homes for people with disabilities are designed to cater to those who may require assistance in some areas of their daily lives but still seek to maintain their independence as much as possible. Today, we’re going to talk about the importance of these accommodations, highlighting how they can transform the lives of people with disabilities. How? By offering a safe, inclusive, and perfectly adapted environment for your visit to Barcelona.
The need for assisted living homes
For many people with disabilities, finding suitable housing that meets their specific needs can be a challenge. Traditional apartments often lack the necessary adaptations, from access ramps to accessible bathrooms, which can significantly limit autonomy and quality of life. This is where assisted living homes play a crucial role, as they are specifically designed to remove these barriers and provide an accessible home that promotes independence and safety.
Features of assisted living homes
The assisted living homes for people with disabilities at MICs Sant Jordi are equipped with a wide range of features and adaptive technologies designed to facilitate the daily lives of residents. These may include wider doors, non-slip floors, emergency alert systems, and adapted kitchens and bathrooms. Additionally, as in the case of MICs Sant Jordi, we offer personal assistance services, such as help with household chores, medication management, or personal care. Thus, we ensure that residents receive the necessary support while maintaining their independence.
