[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]well, what is this attorney offering as an alternative for people with dementia? I mean, my mother is bored in memory care, but she is well taken care of and safe. The alternatives are her living with us and me quitting my job (because she cannot be alone and cannot just chill even for 30 minutes,) AND getting care or f/t care at home which is more expensive. She was kicked out of assisted living for dementia behaviors. I suppose I could just put her in an apartment and allow her to die through starvation; poisoning; getting lost, burning down the apartment....? This is someone who is unable to use a phone, much less care for herself. [/quote] Assisted living isn't enough care for dementia.[/quote]
