Try Now, Stay Forever

A Refreshing Way to Experience Senior Living

Whether you need a short break from caregiving or want to experience community life before making a long-term move, The Chelsea’s short term assisted living program is designed with you in mind.

We also offer this option for families seeking temporary senior assisted living for loved ones needing Memory Care support. Every guest receives compassionate attention and the same high-quality care as our full-time residents.

Most communities require a two-week minimum stay, though many guests choose to extend their visit once they experience the comfort, connection, and support Chelsea provides.

As a short term stay assisted living guest, you’ll enjoy your own private apartment, personalized care plan, and access to all community amenities and activities, just like a full-time resident.

Why a Short-Term Stay May Be Right for You

Caring for a loved one at home is rewarding, but it can also be physically tiring and emotionally stressful. Life’s commitments—work, travel, or simply the need to rest—can make 24/7 care difficult to maintain.

Short term senior living gives caregivers the peace of mind they need while providing seniors with professional support, social interaction, and a welcoming environment.

During your stay, you or your loved one can:

  • Receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication

  • Enjoy nutritious meals prepared by our culinary team

  • Join daily activities, group events, and social outings

  • Access on-site therapy and wellness programs

  • Relax in a comfortable, private apartment

  • Build friendships and feel part of a warm community

This temporary arrangement gives caregivers a much-needed break while ensuring their loved one receives safe, attentive care. For seniors considering a move to assisted living, it’s also the perfect way to experience Chelsea’s lifestyle firsthand.

Experience Comfort, Care, and Connection

At The Chelsea Senior Living, we view temporary assisted living as more than a service, it’s an opportunity to recharge, reconnect, and rediscover joy in everyday life. Guests leave feeling refreshed, supported, and often ready to call Chelsea home.

Our caring team, engaging activities, and welcoming community make every stay special—whether it lasts two weeks or two months.
