How to Make Your Assisted Living Room Feel Like Home

 

When moving into Mountain Plaza Assisted Living in Wyoming, the transition can be made smoother by personalizing your new living quarters. It’s all about making your new space feel as comfortable as your previous home. Here are some simple tips on how to achieve this.

 

#1 Display Family Photos and Keepsakes

 

Nothing makes a place feel more like home than personal memories. Hanging family photos and treasured keepsakes throughout your room will bring that familiar, homey feeling that might be absent in an assisted living community. Additionally, they serve as great conversation starters with new friends and staff!

 

#2 Bring Items with Personal History

 

Objects you’ve had for a long time bring comfort as they carry a bit of personal history. Grab that favorite armchair, the bookshelf holding your beloved novels, or the painting that always hung in your living room. These distinct pieces pack traces and memories of your old home.

 

#3 Personalize with Bedding and Drapery

 

Simple additions like your choice of bedding, curtains, and pillows can substantially augment homeliness. Choose your favorite colors and patterns to brighten up the room and materialize a cozy vibe. 

 

#4 Invest in Ambient Lighting 

 

Lighting has significant effects on mood – softer lights make spaces feel welcoming and comfortable. Therefore, consider adding table lamps or creating softer light with the addition of lampshades.

 

#5 Arrange Your Furniture

 

Tiny shifts to your furniture layout can make vast differences. Arrange the space in a way that’s best suitable for your living style, making small considerations for practicality and ease-of-use.

 

#6 Indoor Plants and Flowers

 

Indoor plants and fresh flowers not only add a natural touch to your room but purify the air as well. These natural elements add positive energy, transforming a new space into a cheerful, lively home.

 

Moving into an assisted living in Wyoming does not mean abandoning your signature style. At Mountain Plaza Assisted Living, we recommend adding personal touches to make your transition more comfortable. Your room should be more than just another living place – it should be an extension of your personality, individuality, and previous home. With a little creativity, you can transform your space in days, making it feel comfortable and cozy.
