[quote=Anonymous]My dad and mom were in a continuing care community in independent living. My dad had Parkinson’s and they stayed in independent living with private pay 24 hour care coming in to their apartment. It is a common set up. My dad could have moved to their skilled nursing facility but he wanted to be at home. Remove the hospice option from your thinking for the time being - it is a kind of care, but can be provided anywhere. The important thing to figure out is what level of care your mom needs. And remember that at home with private pay home health aids is also an option if she has the money, or if assisted living believes she isn’t eligible due to her level of functioning.[/quote]
