Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or ConsumerFeedback@aplaceformom.com to report any complaint.

Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
She is seeing people. That just started a week ago and she refuses to go to the hospital. She's not eating or drinking and refusing to go. I need help.
Jennifer, I hope you can fill in your profile, and provide us with more information. Why do you feel responsible for your grandmother? Are you currently her POA or her caregiver? How old are you? Where are your parents in all this coming concern regarding changes for grandmother? Who is living with grandmother? Whose home does she live in and are others living there with her?
Thanks. Complete information will help us to answer you.
It is sounding like presently YOU may be in charge. If so, and this profound change is beyond your management, call Emergency Services at 911 and have your grandmother transported to the ER where she can be checked out. We cannot guess at what is happening and it could be anything from a stroke to a urinary tract infection, given this sudden onset. Please tell EMS of these sudden drastic changes, and let them know your grandmother is currently not manageable, and you fear for her health and safety.
You call 911 and tell them you suspect she has an untreated UTI and/or dehydration and you can't get her to agree to get care. They will come get her. Or, she may have some other illness or infection that is causing dementia-like symptoms. Make sure to go to the ER with her, let them know if she has a Medical PoA or Representative. Also make sure that they know she is an "unsafe discharge" if she lives alone, then she should not go back until and unless there is some sort of caregiving arrangement set up (and this should not be you, for multiple reasons).
If your Grandma doesn't have a PoA, then she will need a legal guardian to make decisions for her and manage her affairs. If it is not you, then you will need to inform her PoA. If she has no PoA then you should ask to speak to a social worker about transitioning her directly into facility care, if this is appropriate after her treatment. If your Grandma is older than 65 then her Medicare should pay for the ER and medical care she receives (so if you go with her you will need to find her card, hopefully in her wallet).
More infor about her age, if she lives with anyone or has a PoA would be helpful.
If you could complete your profile on this site, or let us know how old your grandmother is, any other symptoms she has, and if she's living with you or living alone, that would give us a fuller picture so we can (hopefully) offer guidance.
