[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once you are in memory care or even the more needy side of assisted living, high end is meaningless. It’s the quality of care that matters. [/quote]

They want a large campus where they don't feel confined. They want good food. They want interesting activities. They are not near needing MC yet.[/quote]

All the food arrives pre-prepared on trucks.

One main company services the majority of assisted living places. The marketing talks about chefs but it is just a person who can heat up pre-made food.

I have visited six places. Activities are all the same:

Chair yoga
Movies
Maybe something w weights
“Walking club”
Happy hours
Events w music
Monthly brunch
Lunches out 1x a month

Sorry. Most or all of these places are not that special but some have nicer fake art on the walls or newer furniture.

Don’t forget:

Bingo
“Resident led activities”
Flower arranging 
Art
Chorus 
Current events 
Ice cream social
