4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read and cope with the issue of a life-changing move, June 25, 1999
By rsags@ix.netcom.com (West Palm Beach, Florida) - See all my reviews
I am a professional that works in the healthcare world and found the knowledge presented by the authors to be quality. They know this area--seniors and the angst of moving from a home and habits of years. Reading this first and then making the choices will be a much easier path to take for many people. Our healthcare system is sometimes complex and confusing and to have a resource such as this can help clear things up. There were some excellent tools provided along with good advice. I enjoyed reading it and will keep it as a reference when my husband and I have to think about this for our own parents. I gave my mother the book for her birthday--she loved it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpful and informative, December 5, 1998
By joandfski@aol.com (Daufuskie Island, SC) - See all my reviews
Our book club, The Islanders, chose this book to read last month because so many of us are facing the problem of caring for our aging parents. The book is well written and humorous, and full of important information for anyone who is concerned about providing a safe home for their parents. We all agreed that we wished the book touched more on the specific problems of dealing with Alzheimers and dementia, since many of our parents will be faced with these problems eventually. Also, the authors mentioned nursing home insurance, but didn't recommend any particular policy or company. There are so many confusing come-ons in the marketplace, that it would have been a great help if there was some information on comparing and evaluating policies. We felt we learned a lot about what we will be facing in caring for our parents, but would love to read more about insurance policies to cover nursing home services.

3.0 out of 5 stars For Children of Wealthy Parents, September 3, 2001
By C. Clark "bookaholic" (Staten Island, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book was enjoyable to read, but I think the authors must come from a much higher socioeconomic bracket than I do! I was hoping it could tell me how to ease my father's transition from his home to my home, but it concentrated only on moving to assisted living. And when I found that one of the items on their checklist for assisted living facilities was whether or not it offered horseback riding, I had to howl with laughter! Three meals a day and a place to hang your hat in assisted living costs $2500/month and up. I can't imagine what the places that offer horseback riding (and golf, etc.) charge. One thing I really appreciated about the book, however, was that the authors advised assisted living consumers to make sure that wheelchair users were not segregated from the rest of the assisted living community. I use a wheelchair, and was shocked and appalled at the news that some assisted living communities won't let wheelchair users into the dining room with the other residents because they feel it is "too depressing."
