My husband has Alzheimer's. I am caring for him. We have no friends or relatives and do not attend church or social events. It has been just the two of us. I am 75 and am going blind. Since I do all of the shopping and medicine, where can I look for us to live? Do any assisted living places take a couple like us?
Look for a IL facilities that offers optional levels of care. With an added cost you and your husband could get more care.
Depending on your retirement funds, if your husband needs a higher level of care, he could move to the Memory Care section and you can stay in IL for awhile. Or you could find a place that has a large enough room for a couple to live in in the Memory Section. It would still give you free rein to go over to the IL for any activities or to chat with friends you have made.
