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.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or ConsumerFeedback@aplaceformom.com to report any complaint.

Mostly Independent
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 don’t have an answer for you but I can offer my sympathy. My mom also is in perfect (almost) health but she is withering away due to inactivity. I’ve had physical therapists come in for strength building often but she doesn’t keep up with her exercises after they go even though there are family members who will come and help her. She argues with me so I don’t try.
It is absolutely a catch-22. I don’t do any exercising because I hate it. I would like to see her be able to do things but she’s so weak there’s nothing for her to do! She won’t even go in the back yard!
I live here with her in her home and we are both housebound because of it. I cannot abide someone who whines and cries for help when they have done nothing to help themselves. Such as not getting up with her alarm. She stays in bed til she’s become so stiff she can’t get up. She knows it’s a problem.
I am tired of yelling at her all the time. I’m tired of her saying: “I know, I know,” then ignoring me. I’m tired of her apologizing to me but still not trying to help herself.
So I backed off and quit trying. I’m still here to help but I don’t push or yell anymore. It doesn’t help a bit! I go around so angry all the time I’m a perfect b*tch! Imo I’ve given up my entire life to watch her deteriate in front of my eyes!
Theres no one else to take my place and frankly, I have nowhere else to be, but the idea of a nh is unlikely because she has no ailments except for controlled diabetes.
I have always said that I am not medically equipped to take care of her when she gets bad so I guess we are just waiting til she gets really sick.
I do understand. Why bother to get up when there’s no reason to, but if she got stronger we could find something to do! We don’t have a car and there’s no one who takes her out except for doctors apptments. So is it my fault that we can’t afford a car to do things? It may be,I guess, but there’s no help for it. She only has MediCare and won’t qualify for Medicaid til she’s bed ridden so there’s no pay for my services which would make the diffrence for that. In the meantime, I’m trying to keep it cool. What’s the point of being here if I’m not making her life more pleasant?
charlotte PS: I would like to get her just to move with music together and I do offer to take her for walks even in her wheel chair but the only time she agrees is spontaneously she’s ready when I have 90 things around the house I’m doing! I won’t begin on what a burden her “home” is to me trying to keep it up with repairs and yard work. That’s all my life is: WORK! While she sits alone and diminishes day by day
