My Father needs to move into assisted living but refuses because he worries that he will be bored and lonely. What can I do to convince him to make this move?

We recommend assuring him that most assisted living facilities actually offer fun activities and ways to connect with other residents. While it is common for residents of assisted living to live in independent apartments, there are often shared amenities like pools, fitness rooms, TV lounges, and even gardening areas that your father can enjoy. Touring one of these facilities to get a better sense of what they can offer may help your father to see that this can be an exciting next step in his life.
