Q
Bravo1 asked...
My brother had been staying in a nursing home. He just had another stroke and we would like to find a better place for him that would meet his needs. My brother also has diabetes and his first stroke left him paralyzed on his left side. He also needs a wheelchair. We do not know the extent of the damage with this recent stroke but so far he can not speak. My brother is only 55-years-old and I can only find nursing homes for elderly people. Can you assist in providing options or places we can contact?

Hi Bravo1,

Sorry to hear about your brother's illness and his recent strokes. While Caring.com is focused on elder care, we may have some assisted living places that will suit you needs in our Local Directory: http://www.caring.com/local.

I wish you the best of luck looking for the right place for your brother.

Thank you for your question, Emily | Community Manager
