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"). B.APFM may provide information to me electronically. My electronic signature on agreements and documents has the same effect as if I signed them in ink. C.APFM may send all communications to me electronically via e-mail or by access to an APFM web site. D.If I want a paper copy, I can print a copy of the Disclosures or download the Disclosures for my records. E.This E-Sign Acknowledgement and Authorization applies to these Disclosures and all future Disclosures related to APFM's services, unless I revoke my authorization.

Please don't be swayed by posters here Trying to guilt you in any way. Memory Care Assisted Living is often the best case scenario for elders suffering with dementia to keep them SAFE and well cared for. We're not The Bad Guys, nor is the MC facility, but the miserable disease itself.
Wishing you the best of luck with all of this.
I only can hope that he will change back to loving it. You can't predict where his mind will take him. Use the right G-word because what you tell yourself in your own mind is so important. You are Grieving, and that is g-word enough. This is worth the grieving, for it is terribly sad and heartbreaking.
I hope things get better for him. Ask at the facility and I bet you will hear he is OK after you leave with his own routine. My best out to you.
Wishing you and your husband peace during this difficult time in your lives.
Please know that you made the right decision to place him. He is safe and that is what is most important.
You need to stay until Doctor ABC believes you can go home.
COVID is still making everyone sick and you're safer here.
Our home is getting [insert something here] and we'll re-talk about it when [something] is finished.
When it is safe.
If he's made friends:
If you leave now, [person 1 and/or person 2] will miss your company. We'll visit this again later.
Or even:
We can't move you today because it is a holiday. We'll try again some other time.
and change the subject!
At this point all you can do is continue to "lie" and hope he doesn't keep bringing this up.
I will get the "I want to go home" speech this week too.
Please seek out a support group for yourself.
The scan itself is upsetting to go through at this stage .
