Staff is available around-the-clock
Though ALFs are not the best fit for seniors who need high-level, around-the-clock care, the staff is on-site at all hours of the day and night to assist residents when needed. Staff are always present to provide support during emergencies and get residents the help they need. Having staff readily available at all times can give peace of mind for both residents and their families that help is always there if an emergency does occur.
