[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Find a CCRC near you. They have lots of social things planned all the time. My parent's biggest mistake was moving to CCRC too late. They were able to live in IL, but were sick/tired enough that they didn't go out and make friends. [/quote] Absolutely this. We prioritized proximity to us, and my family member is now at a nice independent living facility within a 10-minute drive. It makes it so much easier to get together for a meal or a kid's concert, and then take them home. We realized that there are other nice places 30 minutes away from us (45 in traffic), but couldn't imagine an hour or more round trip just to pick up, not to mention dropping off later. (I'd assume that even if they're driving now, they might not be soon.)[/quote]
