[quote=Anonymous]Our experience is you can invest a fortune in this and whether it's realistic all depends on how your parent ages. The company will tell you they can make it so anyone can stay at home. The home care agencies tell you the same, but depending on how your parent ages it may be BS and things can fall apart very fast. Plus aging in place they can become more and more isolated which can lead to more behavioral issues. There may be that final fall or stroke where the person may be in residential. Then even a year later, you have to re-do the house or sell for less because younger people don't want a house set up for an elderly person. It is rare to find that older family buying that is looking for all those changes. [/quote]
