Much good input so far in this thread.
I'd also add that IMO, vinyl plank flooring would be a plus if and when you sell your house. Old people = occasional incontinence, and trips from the bed to the bathroom might not always be incident-free. Cleaning the vinyl is no problem. On the other hand cleaning the carpet in such cases might not be as problem-free, to say nothing of the smell that may very well be there after repeated incidents.
