[quote=Anonymous]I would definitely looking at continuing care places where you can start well and move all the way towards nursing care. There are a few places--rare--that will do that within one apartment. I know of one in another state. Most I think have separate units for each level of service. Assisted living often doesn't include that much assistance--if your mom can't get dressed or go to the bathroom alone, she would probably be in a nursing home care situation. These are called the "activities of daily living" and you have to do a certain number of them to be in assisted living. But if you could find a place where your mom would be well cared for in the nursing wing while your dad could be nearby in his own senior apartment, that would probably be your best bet. [/quote]
