[quote=Anonymous]Average length of stay is less than 2 years. Obviously there is a wide dispersion. For most who do a direct to memory care placement (ie, not a transfer from assisted living), the reason is undue stress on a caregiver. If things are fine at home right now, stay there as long as possible. If things are stressful or unmanageable at home, consider a placement. (It may be good to research now, so you have a short list of resources when you are ready.) It will be hard on either path, and that is because this disease is so unforgiving. Wishing the best to you and your loved ones on this journey. [/quote]
