Really worried as she has so many friends @ present facility. The new one is much less expensive (she can't afford where she's living now). Also the new home is newer & really nice. Think she'll get better care too. She's willing to look @ it, but then forgets & says "oh, this really is a nice place" (place she's in).
It is really great that she likes her current place so well! It sounds like she is kind to make friends and settle in. It is a shame she has to move, but if it is a necessity try not to stress out over it. Present it positively. I'm guessing she'll adjust.
The move itself was a little disorienting for mom. Even though she had watched us pack and load her stuff all morning, when we walked into the new facility she told me she thought she was going to a doctor's appointment, not that she was moving. She was a little more confused for four or five days, but then settled in nicely. The increased activities were a big help. By the end of the first week, she didn't remember that she had ever lived in the old place, and was happy with her new facility. I have absolutely no regrets about the move. Hopefully your experience will be similar.
