[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You tour some facilities by yourself and tee up the paperwork. See if you can get them on a few waiting lists "just in case".

Sometimes you just have to wait for a crisis to force them to accept the change. It seems like you won't have to wait very long.[/quote]

NP and that is what I am thinking too. All it takes is a fall for Dad, for them BOTH to no longer be able to live at home.

Are you POA, OP? I am for my folks, and honestly-I am sort of starting to JUST DO stuff, rather than asking...not in a disrespectful way. I'm talking about cleaning up sometimes (their house is good but i did have to clean out the garage for them to be able to get in the car, and I do monitor the cabinets and fridge for expiration dates). I am more involved medically as they are getting overwhelmed by this (got on all hippa docs). I also went through their files when they were both hospitalized last year-just to get familiar with everything. They are taking care of that side of stuff so I am not presently involved, but I can step in if ever needed-I'm not going ot let stuff get behind.

But yeah, these old folks are so stubborn. I tell my mom 'I'm just trying to keep everyone alive'.[/quote]
