What's the best choice for you and yours - keeping mom or dad in your home, or finding assistend living for them? What do you look for in an assisted living facility that will make you feel comfortable with taking him or her there?

I'm having the same dilemma, though my mom's memory problems are not from Alzheimer's. My problem is there are big issues getting in the way of either solution; it's hard to find a facility that will accept her and she has a really difficult personality that makes it hard to find a caregiver who will tolerate her. Does anyone else have experience with a parent who's difficult to place or care for?

I noticed the other day that in my area, there are living facilities that specifically cater to Alzheimer's patients. You might check your area and see if there might be one, as well. Best wishes!

Well, I’m considering an assisted living however I’m torn with the thoughts that I’m doing something wrong by displacing my mom from the home that she and my father toiled many yeas to purchase. I’ve recently acquired the home from her via quit claim deed, now she says she doesn’t remember signing the house over to me. So now she is telling the whole world that I stolen the house from her. Although everything was done legally I am so torn as what now to do. I have very little help from my family. What are your thoughts, how do you feel about displacement?
