Why Small Assisted Living Facilities Can Be Better Aging Option
Quality of care should be the most important consideration when finding a home for your loved one with dementia. You need to fully assess what level of care is required – know your loved one’s specific type of dementia, and what stage – and investigate communities to find the best match.
