[quote=Anonymous] OP - Yes it is important to have a knowledge of a parent(s) financial situation and what they can afford in the short and. Also, it is important to even get legal help in reading through the contract specifics, especially if their are options on buy-in packages for medical care "for a lifetime'" advertized and/or information that if one's funds would run out that their entrance package guaranteed lifetime care. Another aspect is to realize what any guarantee of say a skilled nursing bed really means --- since if they are filled already and you have a need to such a bed what happens? Just do not be afraid to ask for help in looking at what can be a complicated contract. Also, be clear on how assessments are done as to when an individual may be told one does not qualify for Independent or Assisted Living unless one brings in extra help etc. [/quote]
