[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because they know once you put them in there you’ll never come get them out. Would you want to live in a hospital in your dying days, kids coming to visit once a week if you’re lucky. Never knowing which staff are good or bad, having absolutely zero control over a life you once had complete control over? I’d find her a more suitable arrangement.[/quote] Assisted living is not a nursing home and it is not a "hospital". Not sure about the "visit" comment but going to assisted living doesn't make people visit less. [/quote] It's like living in a hotel. You get your room cleaned, meals cooked for you, some activities. [/quote] It's more like living in a nice single dorm with your own kitchen and bathroom and laundry service. You are required to come out and do activities every single day with your peers. Meals are cooked for you but you can also make food in your kitchen. [/quote]
