Have you also considered Freedom Pointe? It requires a large buy-in fee, and you pay for a lifetime care contract, but it is very nice. The lifetime care contract is what bothers me.
I do not recommend Freedom Pointe for way too many reasons but I have a few friends who have been ripped off by them (buying into the independent living), personally experienced the assisted living to memory care for my Mom and can't find much positive at all! Promises...Promises..Promises. sad!!
