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.

What is the two finger test for Parkinson's disease?
In finger tapping the patient is instructed to tap the index finger on the thumb as fast possible and as big as possible. This means that the patient should try to separate the two fingers as much as possible before tapping them. Make sure to test both the right and the left side.
If DH is unable to perform the finger tapping test, ask the doctor to check him out for possible Parkinson's Disease.
Here is a link to an Agingcare post in this very topics from 2019:

Wishing you the best of luck with a difficult situation.
There are also splash gards
My hubby makes more splashes in that one , are other one is regular flush, so we think it's the bowl size.
We are planning on buying another toilet and checking out sizes and depth and even shape. Project 200 😆
My husband is also 6"5
Maybe even have your husband urinate in a urinal and dump it in.
I'm wondering is he just doesn't like sitting down, and is careless , unconsciously on purpose.
Best of luck
Is there any dementia involved here?
And that may mean you following him in to make sure he's doing it correctly.
My late husband only had use of one hand after his stroke and developed essential tremors in his one good hand/arm so he too missed the toilet all the time. and I too had to make sure that he then sat down to pee every time. He didn't like it much at first, but over time got used to it and it became second nature.
I know that you say that he misses even when he's sitting, but if his penis is tucked in properly that should not be the case.
So again, you may have to start following him into the bathroom to make sure he's doing it correctly until like my husband it becomes second nature to him.
Best wishes.
