[quote=Anonymous]With a mother in a memory care unit and a father in law in the highest level of care in assisted living, I recommend exploring non-profit entities. They aren't perfect and they generally aren't as fancy as the chains owned by PE, but the prices are a fraction lower and most importantly, they have different fee structures and many of them will not kick your family member out if they run out of money because they have endowments. There are very significant caveats to this, most importantly being able to "pass" the means test upon entrance - they honestly aren't likely to let you in if you are 78 and only have enough funds for 2 years of living there. But if you are e.g., 78 and have funds to pay for 10 years, but end up living for 15, they won't kick you out. Not all not for profits have this set up, but my mother's does. [/quote]
