My sister & I are super pleased. Yes, she's fussed about the food of course.just one of you reading this tell me true- if your parent has ever eaten that same meal - have ever. NOT recited an unflattering commentary about. Even if she hover over all the while doing that breathing thing some people make befoa car wreck or something like that. You just want to keep a positive outlook as you turn around & try to lovingly remind her that this part was only cranberry sauce.<br>But she's gotten to make some new friends. Overall I wish with all. My. Heart loved there.,I just can't afford itt but can't decide if I should start dumpster diving or robbing banks

How our free service works, and how we are paid

Georgia asks us to share this with you in writing before we introduce you to a community.

MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps you find senior living. We are paid by our participating communities: if you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

We do not own or manage any community, and none owns us. Our only ties to the communities we list are the referral agreements that pay us and the listing upgrades some buy. A community that pays us is marked Partner or Sponsored on our site, and a community that has bought verification is marked Verified.

The communities we suggest may not be every one in your area, and we can only make introductions to communities that work with us. We suggest communities by the care you need, the area, your timeline and budget, and what families say about them, never by what a community pays us. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it.

To make an introduction we share your name, contact details and the care needs you told us about, and nothing else. You can stop using our service at any time, for any reason and at no cost, and if you do we will let any community we introduced you to know.
