[quote=Anonymous]No way. Never. My dad has lived in a nursing home for over two years with 24-hr care. There is no way I could provide the level of care he receives (and even there I see gaps and problems) nor could I provide a safe infrastructure. One thing to think about, if your elderly relative is wheel chair bound, you need wide doors, ramps, a way to get up stairs, wheelchair accessible bathroom and shower and every way imaginable to mitigate falls. It can literally change overnight. You may move in a healthy, independent, mobile adult but one illness or fall or precipitous event...this is why active living communities with "levels of care exist" - move into active living, die in the nursing home, all in same campus.
