[quote=Anonymous]It is much, much easier to have them in AL. Most people who have them age in place or age at home find this out the hard way and transfer them once burnout and exasperation are extreme.

If there is an issue at the AL he should visit it and see for himself. Hire a professional to go in an assess as well. Might just be a need to for a team meeting and some negotiations with an aging professional doing the advocating.

If he needs a new facility an aging professional can help you find a match. Your brother is delusional if he thinks he can manage this especially because things just keep getting worse, not better as they decline. Plenty of well meaning adult children end up keeping their parents in inhumane situations rotting in front of a TV and their son's house because they somehow think that is better or perhaps cheaper than working with a facility to ensure good care.

Now sometimes the facility will say either you hire an aide or your parent needs a higher level of care facility. If that is the case, you do it. You don't try to save money moving them out thinking you can just hire care at home and save costs. Not the same.[/quote]
