What if Mother needs skilled care and Dad is eligible for assisted living, can they be together in the same facility?
Yes. This is considered a Community Care Retirement Community known as a graduated level facility. Dad would be able to live in an apartment or studio setting with added assistance with the activities of daily living, fun activities, trips, exercise programs etc. Mother would be at the same facility but in the skilled unit area. Very close in proximity to assisted living area giving them both the security of knowing each other is there and they can see each other 24 x 7.
