Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
I prefer the former but am trying to adjust. Not the best with new technology. I need to keep a notebook with all the suggestions on new methods but havent had the mental energy to do so yet. Recent setbacks with my mother sap me. She had bladder testing recently and it wiped her out. And when that happens I start wondering if she will rebound. So learning something new is difficult for me especially now.
I have tried to type in comments on the question listed by Wally and was unable to do so. The Comment box would NOT accept anything that I typed (and I tried 3 times) so I ended up typing on another person's question. Here is what I wrote last night:
I CANNOT answer any of the questions about the NEW FORMAT. Nothing that I type shows up. I even tried to open a New Question and a New Discussion and was unable to do either. The screen went to the bottom of the webpage and I could not type any more. So I "finaaly" (misspelling not caught because the RED underline disappeared) found a questions that has a similar topic and I am typing on this one.
Spell check is a JOKE!! There may be 3-4 words that are misspelled but once you correct one word, the RED underline disappears from the other misspelled words so that you have to proofread the entire post.
The comment box/form has FROZEN FIVE different times on FIVE different posts!! I could NOT EDIT, but I could ADD words to the end of the post. After 3-5 minutes, I was able to Edit. But it is getting ridiculous that the Comment post freezes up every time I type something.
Questions that I have been following on the OLD Format have disappeared! When I go to a person's profile and look at their Answers, their postings are not listed according to date. The dates skip from 2018 to 2014 to 2017 to 2018 to 2015 to 2016 and so forth. Is that because each 2018 is the start of a new TOPIC? I don't remember what the various topics were for each question.
I can't read the MENU's drop-down tab because it is a light colored FONT on a light colored background.
Some of the questions are listed 2-3 times under-- "Need Answers", "Recent Questions" and "Popular Questions". And then when you click on the "See More Recent Questions" arrow, the same questions are listed again. How many times do I need to see the same questions?!?!?
My computer screen "Blinks" while I am editing a comment.
