I found a very nice facility that was reasonably priced. She is apprehensive but accepting it better than I thought she would. Wish us luck!

Has anyone made the steps needed to move someone to assisted living in another state from where they live?
How do I get across to the bath aides to keep my mother covered during her bath?
Mom has vascular dementia, moved her in to AL on 4/11/21. Am I doing the right thing by not answering her calls?

Congrats for making the decision. May I highly recommend that you continue to be her strong advocate. Don't be fooled by the glitz of an expensive ALF and think the care matches the cost. The ALF was only good for my Mom until she required further help with dressing, bathing, getting up and ready for bed.

Brave of you! I hope you will both be happy. The only AL's that I have seen are so nice that I WANT to move in!
