[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your parents are giving you a gift by voluntarily downsizing and moving to a retirement facility before there is a crisis. Do NOT try and talk them out of this. Asking questions to help them plan, or debating the merits of one place vs. another is fine. But grab this opportunity with both hands! For counterpoint, read the hundreds of threads on elderly parents who insist on staying in their (often cluttered, unsafe, isolated) homes until the 427th medical crisis forces an emergency choice among whatever is available at that time. [/quote] +100 Also as others have mentioned find out if it has an assisted living option or other service options in the very likely event that their needs will increase at some point. [/quote]
