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.

APFM does not (and may not) require or even ask consumers seeking senior housing or care services in Washington State to sign waivers of liability for losses of personal property or injury or to sign waivers of any rights established under law.I agree that: A.I authorize A Place For Mom ("APFM") to collect certain personal and contact detail information, as well as relevant health care information about me or from me about the senior family member or relative I am assisting ("Senior Living Care Information").

If he's suffering from dementia, he can still be told what you are and are not willing to tolerate from him, behavior-wise. My mother has pretty advanced dementia but when I tell her that I won't listen to her ranting and raving & will either come back at a later time/call her at a later time when she's in a better mood, you'd be surprised at how quickly she calms down. A person will tend to push another person as far as they THINK they can before being told to cut the crap.
Wishing you the best of luck setting down boundaries to how much you will tolerate from your father. Respect is a two-way street.
btw, I am not by any means saying that it’s the way it is and that you need to take it. Yes set boundaries. I guess I am trying to hope there are some good out there. Sorry if it came out that ways because I hated it when I was told that’s how it is
Arguing with someone, no matter their age, when they are upset is a recipe for a nom-productive exchange.
I try very hard not to engage when he tries to draw me into responding to his harsh words. I'm not always successful, but am always better off for having tried. It's double hard when it's someone you love...and is supposed to love you.
If he is just a nasty person, then you just need to walk away telling him you will not put up with his nastiness. You are also an adult and as such you need to be respected. If he relies on you, then you need to tell him he needs you more than you need him. Call his bluff and tell him you can always walk thru the door and not return. (Hope ur not living with him) Look up the "Grey rock menthod".
If you give us more info, you'll get better answers. His age, his health, do u live together.
