Ask Curtis: Nursing Home

Dear Curtis,
If my parents go into an assisted living facility, will they eventually need to go to a nursing home at some point?
– Looking out for Mom and Dad.

Dear Looking Out:
Many residents are able to stay in assisted living forever. Unfortunately, some may develop needs that by necessity require them to go to a skilled level of care. When or if this happens, the staff of the assisted living facility will work with the resident and their family to make the transition to the appropriate facilityas smooth as possible.
