[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, trying to get him to agree to assisted living. He’s very against it. Maybe being bored out of his mind will make that happen more quickly? His aide is great and will happily drive him around vs sitting in the house all day watching tv. [/quote] It can be hard to make that leap because at home = sense of independence, while an AL setting or even steps up from there can = more regular socialization. My mom moved from home into a memory care unit and it was a huge benefit for her. Even the staff commented on how she really seemed to blossom in the move.[/quote]
