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.

I hope that the rehabilitation center gave her time to recover from such a major bone break.
I had a dear friend that had the same break and she was never the same again. So prepare your heart for her to possibly never get any better and potentially fail to thrive.
I am sorry for your mom. What an awful situation to be in.
Strength and hugs to you both.
Sending you both a big hug! 💕
After the surgery, everything collapsed.
We were told that it was likely because of the anesthetic and the length of time she was “under”.
A terrible tragedy for which there was no solution. I’m so sorry this has happened to you and your family.
She made a full recovery (she was 92 at the time this happened), is 94 now, and doing ok at the Memory Care AL she's was transferred to after the pneumonia incident. She had been living in the regular ALF bldg prior to that incident, but they would not take her back due to her decline after the hospital and rehab stay.
Just wanted to let you know that your mother's condition is not NECESSARILY permanent. It may be, but then again it may not be. It depends on a lot of things, I think. Prepare yourself for the possibility, however, that the ALF may not be willing to accept her back in her current condition...........the nurse normally comes by the SNF to do an evaluation to make that determination. If she doesn't improve enough to go back to her old ALF, she may have to stay in the SNF in their long term care section until and unless she improves. Just a head's up on that. My father was in that situation back in 2014 after breaking a hip and making the infamous 'no progress' in rehab, too. He recovered too, by the way.........so don't lose hope, ok? :)
Wishing you the best possible outcome here; I know how worrisome and stressful (and heartbreaking) all this is to witness & endure.
