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.

This man is still drinking, as seriously ill as he is, and that is another matter that seems like it can create a problem for you. Did you buy him the booze, for example?
It just seems like it's more trouble than it's worth for you to be taking on SUCH a gigantic responsibility with this friend. You are risking YOUR health and well being because the stress alone can kill you! Why not have his family come get him and then you can arrange to visit him from time to time, or speak on the phone, at the very least?
It sounds like you've done enough already and will be treated as The Bad Guy by the family after this man winds up killing himself from drinking too much.
Wishing you all the best.
have you told his family to come get him? Have you asked him to leave your home? No the police cannot force him to receive medical care for his liver failure. No his family cannot force him to get medical treatment. Yes if he dies the family can have it investigated and you will be part of the investigation but unless you’ve actually done something wrong, nothing will happen. My late MIL’s boyfriend was investigated for murder after his first wife died, she stopped taking her meds and refused treatment of colitis and died and her family felt he was responsible. I believe she was on hospice and after our experience with him while MIL was on hospice I can see why his wife’s family had him investigated. But back to your situation, unless he’s asking you to take him to the hospital and you’re refusing or your refusing to give him his medication, there’s nothing you can be held responsible for. You might want to call APS and ask them to assess the situation because it will get this situation officially documented.
