[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can she live with you and have care in your home?[/quote] No, I looked into that prior to moving her to memory care. I could have converted a room on the main level into a bedroom but my house doesn't have a main level full bath. And the cost of in-home care was actually exponentially higher than memory care. I know I should feel lucky that she was at the lowest care level until now but this stings. The increase is significant.[/quote] Being in a facility is actually better for the patient. Safer (locked/controlled areas), interaction with more people helps the brain (in the earlier stages especially) and as you stated, is more affordable. Good quality round the clock care is $$$$$$$ and in your own home, you cannot guarantee safety without that 24/7 care [/quote]
