Yes, many modern assisted living communities are designed with residents’ comfort and independence in mind, which often includes private bathrooms and kitchen areas. These features allow seniors to maintain a sense of privacy and autonomy while still having access to supportive care when needed. Private bathrooms are typically equipped with safety features such as grab bars, walk-in showers, and emergency call systems to reduce the risk of falls and promote safety. Kitchenettes, found in many assisted living floor plans, usually include essentials like a sink, microwave, refrigerator, and counter space—perfect for preparing light meals or snacks. This setup gives residents flexibility while ensuring safety through thoughtful design. However, full kitchens are less common, as daily meals are usually provided in a communal dining area. The combination of private amenities and shared spaces creates a comfortable balance between independence and social engagement for assisted living residents.
