[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because they know once you put them in there you’ll never come get them out. Would you want to live in a hospital in your dying days, kids coming to visit once a week if you’re lucky. Never knowing which staff are good or bad, having absolutely zero control over a life you once had complete control over? I’d find her a more suitable arrangement.[/quote] Assisted living is not a nursing home and it is not a "hospital". Not sure about the "visit" comment but going to assisted living doesn't make people visit less. [/quote] It's like living in a hotel. You get your room cleaned, meals cooked for you, some activities. [/quote] Where they medicate you against your will and can come into your room at any time.[/quote] In Maryland, they have to check on you every two hours. It’s law. [/quote]
