Care costs can be increased at any time - we left the facility after the monthly cost exceeded $8500/mo. If your loved one needs help bathing, dressing, finding their way around, etc., that will cost much more than the basic quoted rate. Although this is "assisted living" all care is additional. What care there is does not feel personal nor does it seem that any of the staff are really invested in the facility or its residents, though during their short terms of employment they do try.

They have exercise, music, and a sharing time or kind of a news time. They have all kinds of specific activities for people who have dementia. It has a little more privacy than what you will typically find in a memory care. They seem to be conscious of everybody that is there and what is going on with them.
