That isn't what you're doing. You're only posting from what you know which may or may not be accurate.

I have a friend who owns several group homes in Las Vegas. All are rated ""A"" by the DPBH and inspection reports for every facility are public record. The places are spotless and odor free. If you have worked in assisted living the one thing you should be familiar with is odor of urine. Places that are well run have no smell. The staff treats their patients as family. You can't generalize about assisted living facilities. They are not the same. Everyone must do their due diligence.

I would have written her off long ago...her Threats, bad behavior and her money. You have been way kinder than I ever would have been.

You always answer questions with a question??? You are not an expert... Just another opinion ...I am sure you are not a new poster here either.

Gato.....may I ask which ones your friend owns? I don't know why you mentioned Las Vegas to Pippy. You know that I live out here and I hope you know that I am not Pippy. I am a little sensitive about that since I have been wrongly accused before of being newbies and not only that there are people who like to perpetuate it.

Oh, I know you aren't Pippy found! That never crossed my mind.

The group homes my friend owns are in Henderson. My friend and her husband have made a lucrative business buying homes and converting them into group homes.

Don't fool yourself into thinking there are good facilities out there, All of them, and I do mean all of them are overbooked and understaffed. At the very best your loved one will be neglected. At the very worst she will be abused both physically and emotionally.

You are absolutely wrong. You are the one who has no idea what you are talking about. My grandfather actually wanted to live in an assisted living center in Oklahoma after my grandmother died because so many of his other friends lived there and loved it. All types of activities, great food, great amenities. He did pay a pretty penny for it but perhaps that is why you aren't aware of the good ones. I know price can be a big factor on the type of facility and staff you will get. I am guessing that was the issue your friends or family had. We actually loved visiting him there because the grounds, buildings, dining halls, pool areas, recreation areas, tennis courts, and music pagoda were all so lovely. The employees were also great and highly trained. They put on musicals, took trips, had all kinds of different activiites that I actually wanted to live there. My uncle also went to a similar facility though it was located in Buffalo, NY. He was a judge and there were many people he knew there that were in the same field such as lawyers, other judges, doctors, etc... I have never seen two such nicely run facilities. I am sorry your loved one didn't have the same experience but that definitely doesn't mean others didn't.
