In some cases, yes they will pull them out, and hire a personal in-home care aide instead. The difference in cost between an assisted living facility and simply hiring a home health aide to work out the privacy of your own home (such as from Brightstarcare.com?) is not significant (or so I've been told). If the risk of death from living in one of these facilities becomes too great... then yes, caring sons and daughters will do something about it. My parents are in their late 70's but in reasonably good health for their advanced age. If they were in an assisted living residence right now, I would spend every last dime I had to get them the hell out of there. My conscience couldn't handle it if either one of them died in one of them and I hadn't done anything to reduce their risk.They won’t pull them out...... the reason they are there is bc family members can’t care for them.
