[quote=Anonymous]Have a local social worker come and do an evaluation. They will recommend places that are appropriate based on your parents level of health and activity. We have one parent who is starting to lose it and is very active, and one who could not live independently without the care of their spouse. The evaluation was a couple of hundred dollars that was well spent. The place I had been pushing wasn't appropriate because the level of activity needed for them didn't match the average ability of the residents. SW recommended 3 places, we visited all, and it really came down to 2 of them (one they ruled out after the visit based on feel/vibes). They have now been there 6 months and are very happy, as am I[/quote]
