Default Assisted Living

I have my 90 year old mother here for a month long visit. I had hoped that she would like to live here permanently (from PA), but in 'test driving' a patio villa I find that she really is not capable of the things that she used to do back home...cook, shop, clean..etc. Aside from that she is visibly becoming very forgetful, not remembering things from one day to the next. Anyway, I have started to visit the retirement homes and am looking for any comments - good, bad or ugly, regarding assisted living. My dad passed 4 years ago, and he was a WW II vet, so I see that some have advertised availability of veterans benefits. Any help there also is appreciated. Thanks to all.
