My father is currently in Assisted Living and was managing fine. Several weeks ago he had severe back pain and now we discovered he has a back fracture. Since he has very limited mobility and issues with dressing and walking we are now considering getting a care-taker(s) to move in with him. Of course, this means the out of pocket cost with skyrocket.
He has nursing home insurance, but we prefer not to go that route. He is full mind and awareness.
Other than hiring care-takers, I am searching for a Board and Care facility but cannot find anything in his zip code. I have contacted AgingCare and A Place for Mom and all they offer is nursing and assisted living options. Anyone have any ideas?
