[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL was in assisted living for 5 years (not in the DC area). She is quite a drinker. Assisted living means there's some help available, but it's not like a prison. I don't think they can just go through your apartment and remove stuff. She was still able to drive and do her own shopping, but they did provide three meals a day, and someone was available to go shopping for her, if needed. She definitely went out to the liquor store and get her bourbon, invited friends over for Happy Hour. I think there is a lot of drinking that goes on among some portion of the elderly in assisted living. Now, if they decided in their own minds that she was drinking too much, would they pick up liquor for her at the store? That I don't know. [/quote] This is helpful. Thanks![/quote]
