[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, have you found a CCRC that will take your FIL as a direct entry to memory care? CCRCs usually want people to enter at the IL level so they can establish ties to the community before they're more limited [/quote] There's been no looking yet. What happens when someone has been at home until their needs are no longer able to be met there?[/quote] Some CCRCs will take you as a "per diem" patient, but it's more expensive. Other people move to nursing homes or other care facilities that are only for people who can't manage independent living (CCRCs/life plan communities are for people who are ready to move but don't need care yet, with the understanding that staged support is available as needed)[/quote]
