| If you are lucky to be able to get an apartment
    in an assisted living residence, then you will have what's called
    'assessments' every 6 months or so. You will be assessed on dressing
    and grooming, shower assistence, escort service, bladder control,
    medication assistance, emotional status relating to interactions
    with others, therapy, personnel safety. and other. The systems
    are fair and convenient. We never experienced any inappropriate
    assessment. In fact, everyone tried to keep the points as low
    as possible to keep costs down. |
