[quote=Anonymous]If eventually you will need her nearby to care for her (ie if you cannot go and spend weeks at a time with her when she needs it) try to get her to move sooner. That way she can build relationships while she is still mobile and healthy. It can be done from a distance, but is harder on the caregiver and the quality of care can be impacted. My experience is that frequent, short visits are best when health is really declining, and 15 min a day would be better than a few hours each weekend, when you need to keep an eye on things.[/quote]
