Although it is a year-round color, pastel blues, especially alongside pinks and pale yellows suggest springtime, while deep blue is a colder weather color. A deep royal shade, indigo, or azure conveys richness and perhaps even a touch of superiority in designs, while almost-black navy is a bit warmer than lighter blues.

The average stay for nursing-home residents is 28 months, and the average stay for assisted-living residents is 27 months. But many of those people receive some other kind of long-term care before or after their stay.
Itâs not uncommon for more women than men to seek long term care providers, especially assisted living. In fact, according to the Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA), assisted living communities have a 7:1 ratio of women to men. The typical assisted living resident is described as a mobile female around the age of 87 years old. While she is still mostly independent, she does require some help with at least two or three daily living activities, like bathing, dressing, eating, or medication management.
