Independent Plus Program For Emergency Situations

Adaptive Assisted Living Care for Independent Residents During Special Circumstances

New state provisions for hurricane preparation have been mandated for Assisted Living Facilities because of the COVID-19 virus. These changes along with our experience during 2017 Hurricane Irma have necessitated clarification of what we can and cannot do for Independent Residents.

Alderman Oaks has created an additional category of care to allow us to accommodate independent resident needs during emergencies. The category will be under our Assisted Living License. It will provide only minimal service but allow us to assist during emergencies.
