[quote=Anonymous]My parents moved to Greenspring (an Erickson facility) and it was great for them. My advice: 1) find a place with a full time medical facility on site (and a pharmacy that takes their insurance). As they get older, little tiny things start to crop up. Having an on-site facility was a god send! 2) find one close to you. In the beginning, while getting them settled, I was there 3-5 times a week. After a few months, I was there 1-2 a week. Then towards the end I was there 6-7 days a week. At one point, I slept there every night for 2 months. (Come home for dinner and see DH and DS, then go over) Luckily their place was only 15-20 mins away. Don’t pick a place that you have to drive over 45+ minutes or you’ll drive yourself insane!
