[quote=Anonymous]Hello all, I’m hoping people who have been through things like this already can give some advice. I am an only children of a 76 year old woman who is single. I live 400 miles from her. She has always had a difficult, very independent and impulsive personality. Over the past few years, I have noticed significant cognitive and physical decline (home no longer clean, limits activity, repeats stories more, and forgets words). Her neurologist states no dementia symptoms present but I notice a difference.

She has asked my advice about leaving her paid off single family home to move to an independent living place near her home. It costs 4k a month rent and has a buy in of 50,000 which is apparently refundable.

I have no idea how to assess whether this is a good place for her. I’m due to talk to one of the representatives later this week. She wants to move in April (I would fly up and help her).

What should I make sure to find out to assure this is a good decision? Thanks everyone. [/quote]
