By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

I hate when my husband goes on ladders when I'm not home, and sometimes I have to go to moms. So I will check are ring to see he has been going in and out of the house and such. And I can even talk to him if I feel like I need to when he sets it off.
But to be honest, I want you not to , because I think you need to enjoy yourself. Put home out of your head . We have to do that for are mental well being.
Oh I'm sorry just editing I didn't realize you already have cameras. Seriously that's plenty.
You've already placed cameras in her home, that you can access from anywhere in the world and she has a life alert type device in case she falls, so what more do you want?
I literally can feel your stress just from reading your post. Take some deep breaths and calm down.
Unless you wrap your 97 year old mom up in some bubble wrap, and put her up somewhere where she can't get hurt, I don't know what else you can do other than hire 24/7 care for her on her dime.
Let your mom live her life as she sees fit and quit being so over protective and stressed out over something you have little control over.
Another option of course is moving her into a nice assisted living facility where she will be around other folks her own age and where she will have folks checking on her throughout the day, and be able to do lots of fun activities if and when she wants to, and most importantly you can get back to just being her loving daughter and advocate and not her stressed out caregiver. Plus your husband and you will be able to come and go as you please and enjoy your retirement years without the added stress of making sure your 97 year old mom has all the care she requires.
Your mom has had her life, so it's time for you and hubby to now live and enjoy yours.
