When moving to an assisted living facility, you can typically bring your own furniture, but there are a few considerations to keep in mind:

1. Space and Layout: Assisted living apartments or rooms often have limited space. You may need to downsize your furniture to fit the available area. It’s important to check the size and layout of the unit beforehand to ensure your furniture will fit comfortably.
2. Facility Guidelines: Some facilities have specific guidelines regarding the types and sizes of furniture that are allowed. For example, they may require furniture to be flame-retardant or easy to move for safety reasons. It’s a good idea to ask the facility about any restrictions.
3. Safety Concerns: Safety is a priority in assisted living, so furniture that could pose a tripping hazard or be difficult to move in case of an emergency may not be suitable.
4. Support and Comfort: You may want to bring furniture that provides comfort and support, such as an ergonomic chair or a bed with special features like a raised or adjustable headrest, if needed.
5. Storage Options: If you’re unable to bring all your furniture, some facilities offer storage options for belongings you don’t want to part with.

It’s always a good idea to contact the facility directly to discuss what furniture is allowed and how best to prepare for your move.
