Carol Bradley Bursack, Oct 4, 2009
Over the span of two decades author, columnist and speaker Carol Bradley Bursack cared for a neighbor and six elderly family members. Because of this experience, Bradley Bursack created a portable support group, the book “Minding Our Elders: Caregivers Share Their Personal Stories.” Her sites, www.mindingourelders.com and www.mindingoureldersblogs
The Eldercare Locator at www.eldercare.gov will let you type in Zip codes to help you locate a place. They are not screened, but it's a start.
If you can, once you find a place, go and observe. If you have choices, observe and compare. Here are two articles that may help you:http://www.agingcare.com/133904http://www.agingcare.com/133358
Good luck with this,Carol
