[quote=Anonymous]Our AL facility has a number of levels. Memory care is different and really like a jail. I would avoid that unless its dangerous for her to be anywhere else. We just stepped my mom up from zero to 1--medication management. Level 2 includes personal care (help with showering, dressing). Level 3 might be helping to walk to meals, toileting etc. The question with memory is: what dangers does she face with her memory at the moment? for my mom, the only critical danger right now is taking too little or too much medication. The rest of thes tuff she forgets doesn't matter. I end up doing all the doctors appintments, finances, etc, anyway so have a handle on those things. [/quote]
