[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't make blanket statements, OP. My MIL is having a wonderful experience aging in place. She has several chronic conditions, including Parkinson's, and she thought this through years ago: she selected her caregivers herself and pays a rotation of them so that she's covered even if one of them has an emergency (and one of them did), and they all love her. They're not expensive compared to a home, the effort involved was in the *selection* of honest and caring folk. When her medical needs force her into a specialized facility, she'll be miserable. But we're doing all we can to push that day into the future. [/quote] How many hours per week are they at her home? 24/7 would be way more expensive than assisted living. [/quote]
